Mg(s) + CoBr2(aq) ⟶ MgBr2(aq) + Co(s)
Mg(s) ==> Mg2+(aq) ... oxidation half reaction
Mg(s) ==> Mg2+(aq) + 2e- ... balanced for mass and charge
Co2+(aq) ==> Co(s) ... reduction half reaction
Co2+(aq) + 2e- ==> Co(s) .. balanced for mass and charge
Cu(s) + 2AuCl(aq)⟶ CuCl2(aq) + 2Au(s)
Cu(s) ==> Cu2+(aq) ... oxidation half reaction
Cu(s) ==> Cu2+(aq) + 2e- ... balanced for mass and charge
2Au+(aq) ==> 2Au(s) ... reduction half reaction
2Au+(aq) + 2e- ==> 2Au(s) ... balanced for mass and charge
