Identify the anode and cathode half-reactions and categorize each as either oxidation or reduction.
A) Anode reaction: Ag+(aq) + e- → Ag(s) (oxidation)
Cathode reaction: Cu(s) → Cu2+(aq) + 2e- (reduction)
B) Anode reaction: Ag+(aq) + e- → Ag(s) (reduction)
Cathode reaction: Cu(s) → Cu2+(aq) + 2e- (oxidation)
C) Anode reaction: Cu(s) → Cu2+(aq) + 2e- (oxidation)
Cathode reaction: Ag+(aq) + e- → Ag(s) (reduction)
D) Anode reaction: Cu(s) → Cu2+(aq) + 2e- (reduction)
Cathode reaction: Ag+(aq) + e- → Ag(s) (oxidation)
