e reaction
Fe(s) + 2 Ag+ (aq) ► Fe2+ (aq) + 2 Ag(s)
Which species is oxidized and which is reduced?
is oxidized.
is reduced

Answer 1

Explanation:

Fe(s) + 2Ag⁺ (aq.) → Fe²⁺(aq.) + 2Ag(s)

Here,

Fe is oxidised to Fe²⁺ (Loss of electron = oxidation)

And

Ag⁺ is reduced to Ag (Gain of electron = reduction)
