a)

The atoms in the silver nitrate solution and copper (II) nitrate solution rearranged as they reacted, producing copper particles and silver particles.

b)

The atoms in the copper and silver nitrate solution rearranged as they reacted, producing silver particles and copper (II) nitrate solution.

c)

The atoms in the silver and copper (II) nitrate solution rearranged as they reacted, producing copper particles and silver nitrate solution.

d)

The atoms in the silver and copper rearranged as they reacted, producing silver nitrate solution and copper (II) nitrate solution.
