Molecular equation is as follows:
Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) ==> Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)
Half equations are as follows:
Cu(s) ==> Cu^2+(aq) + 2e is the oxidation half.
Ag^+(aq) + e ==> Ag(s) is the reduction half
Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) ==> Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)
Half equations are as follows:
Cu(s) ==> Cu^2+(aq) + 2e is the oxidation half.
Ag^+(aq) + e ==> Ag(s) is the reduction half
