Question
What is the reactant(s) in the chemical equation below?Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)A.Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq)B.Cu(s)C.2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)D.2Ag(s)
Solution
The reactants in a chemical equation are the substances that exist before the reaction takes place. In the given chemical equation, the reactants are on the left side of the equation, before the arrow.
So, in the equation Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq), the reactants are Cu(s) and 2AgNO3(aq).
Therefore, the answer is A. Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq).
