2Ag(s) + H2S(g) → Ag2S(s) + H2(g) Does this equation represent a redox reaction? (1 point) Responses Yes, it does because hydrogen (H) undergoes reduction and silver (Ag) undergoes oxidation. Yes, it does because hydrogen (H) undergoes reduction and silver (Ag) undergoes oxidation. No, it does not because sulfur (S) does not change oxidation states. No, it does not because sulfur (S) does not change oxidation states. No, it does not because neither hydrogen (H) nor silver (Ag) transfers electrons. No, it does not because neither hydrogen (H) nor silver (Ag) transfers electrons. Yes, it does because silver (Ag) undergoes reduction and hydrogen (H) undergoes oxidation.

Apologies for the confusion. You are correct, the oxidation state of silver (Ag) increases from 0 to +1 in this reaction. Therefore, the correct answer is:

No, it does not because silver (Ag) undergoes oxidation and hydrogen (H) undergoes reduction.
