To find the concentration of \( \text{Ag}^+ \) ions so that both \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \) and \( \text{Ag}^+ \) can be co-deposited, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Half-Reactions The half-reactions for the reduction of copper and silver are as follows: - For copper: \[ \text{Cu}^{2+} + 2e^- \rightarrow \text{Cu} \quad (E^\circ = +0.33 \, \text{V}) \] ...
