Copper reacts with silver(I) nitrate through the balanced single replacement reaction below: Cu + 2 AgNO3 + Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
If 2.88 g of silver are produced from the reaction, how many moles of copper are required for this reaction.

answer is: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

this is chemical change (chemical reaction), because two new substances are formed (metalig liquid and gas), the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

this is example of chemical decomposition.

chemical decomposition (analysis) is the separation of a single chemical compound into its two or more elemental parts or to simpler compounds.  

chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.

plasma is the state of matter where the substance is ionized and has no definite shape or volume. the fact of being ionized makes the substance a good electrical conductor.

b.

the accuracy of the data.
