(115 pts.) ferrous nitrate reacts with silver nitrate in aqueous solution to form ferric nitrate and metallic
silver according to the chemical equation
fe(no3)2(aq) + agno3(aq) + fe(no3)3(aq) + ag(s),
for which k = 3.0.
(a) derive the net ionic equation for this reaction.
(b) determine whether the reaction is a replacement reaction or an oxidation-reduction
reaction, and, in the latter case, identify the oxidizing and reducing agents.
(c) write the expression for q in terms of the activities (the [] symbols) of the species
responsible for driving the reaction to equilibrium.
