    When \[Cu\] reacts with \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] solution, the reaction takes place is:

    A)  oxidation of\[Cu\]         

    B)         reduction of\[Cu\]

    C)         oxidation of\[Ag\]         

    D)         reduction of\[NO_{3}^{-}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[Cu\] is placed above \[Ag\] in electrochemical series, hence it can replace Ag from its salts solution. Therefore the reaction occur as follows:                 \[\overset{0}{\mathop{Cu}}\,+AgN{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow[oxidation]{}\overset{-1}{\mathop{C}}\,uN{{O}_{3}}+Ag\]
