Break down the following equations into two half equations(One for oxidation, one or reduction )
1. Cu + 2Ag+ ➡️Cu2+ +2Ag
2. Cl2 +2I ➡️2cl-+I2​

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Break down the following equations into two half equations(One for oxidation, one or reduction )

1. Cu + 2Ag+ ➡️Cu2+ +2Ag

2. Cl2 +2I- ➡️I2 + 2Cl​-

in reaction "1", the copper is being oxidized from 0 to +2 by losing 2 electrons

Cu---->Cu2+   + 2e-in reaction "2

in reaction "1" the silver is being reduced by gaining those 2 e-.

2Ag1+  + 2e----------->2Ag

In reaction "2", the iodine is being oxidized by losing 2 e-

2I- -------------> I2 + 2e

In reaction "2" the chlorine is being reduced by gaining those 2 e

Cl2 + 2e------------> 2Cl-
