Ag is the element Silver. Ag has more electrons than Ag+as for the element to become positively charged through a process called oxidation in which Ag has given up an electron to another element in order to obtain a positive charge. Another way to look at it is the "+" indicates a loss of a negatively charged particle which, in this case, is an electron.
Proper Half-Reaction:
Ag+ + e- ---> Ag
Ag+
Silver (Ag)
Yes, silver (Ag) is diamagnetic because it has a completely filled 4d orbital, which results in paired electrons with opposite spins that cancel out the magnetic moments. As a result, it exhibits no net magnetic moment when placed in a magnetic field.
Silver is a metal therefore it loses an electron when it reacts to form Ag+
Silver is a metal element. Atomic number of it is 47.
If Ag+ is converted to Ag, it has gained electrons. Ag+ indicates that silver has lost one electron, so when it is converted back to Ag, it means that electron has been gained back.
The number of protons in a atom is equal to the atomic number, therefor Ag has 47 protons. The number of protons and neutrons in an atom is equal to the atomic mass, therefor (108-47= 61) Ag has 61 neutrons. The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons therefor Ag has 47 electrons.
In the redox reaction, silver (Ag) has been reduced because it gains electrons in forming solid silver (Ag) from silver nitrate (AgNO3).
In the redox reaction AgNO3 + NaNO3 + Ag, silver (Ag) is reduced from Ag+ to Ag with the gain of one electron. Therefore, one electron is transferred in this reaction.
In this reaction, silver (Ag) has been oxidized. This is because silver changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Ag metal to an oxidation state of +1 in AgNO3. Oxidation involves the loss of electrons.
Fe + 3AgNO3 ==> Fe(NO3)3 plus 3Ag The oxidation number of Ag in AgNO3 (on the left side) is 1+ and in Ag (on the right side), it is zero. Thus, in this reaction, silver (Ag) has been reduced.
Zero The oxidation number of an element in its elemental form is always zero.
Silver is a metal element. Atomic mass number of it is 197.
In the reaction ( 2Ag^{+} + 2e^{-} \rightarrow 2Ag ), two electrons are transferred per silver ion, so a total of four electrons are transferred in the overall reaction.
Ag+
Silver (Ag) has 47 protons, 47 electrons and 61 neutrons, with an atomic number of 47 and atomic mass of 108.
Fe(s) + 3AgNO3 ---> Fe(NO3)3 + Ag(s) The oxidation # of Ag on the left is 1+ and on the right it is zero. It has gained electrons and has been reduced.
