One of the steps for refining silver involves converting silver into dicyanoargenate(I) ions:      4Ag(s) + 8CN−(aq) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) ⟶ 4[Ag(CN)2]−(aq) + 4OH−(aq)Explain why oxygen must be present to carry out the reaction. Why does the reaction not occur as:            4Ag(s) + 8CN−(aq) ⟶ 4[Ag(CN)2−(aq)?
Do you think that the formation of [CoCl4]2-(aq) is endothermic or exothermic? Explain.
