Answer: Oxidation half: [tex]2Ag\rightarrow 2Ag^++2e^-[/tex]
Reduction half: [tex]2H^++2e^-\rightarrow H_2[/tex]
Explanation:
Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.
[tex]2Ag(s)+H_2S(s)\rightarrow Ag_2S(s)+H_2(g)[/tex]
Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.
Oxidation half: [tex]2Ag\rightarrow 2Ag^++2e^-[/tex]
Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.
Reduction half: [tex]2H^++2e^-\rightarrow H_2[/tex]
