Silver is slightly more reactive than gold, although they are both very unreactive. Assuming that the gold nitrate exists, because it would be very rare, silver would react with it and displace it. The products formed will be silver nitrate and gold.

Yes. Since tin is higher than Silver on the Activity Series of Metals, it will replace the Silver, forming Silver and Tin Nitrate.

Copper will react with silver nitrate to form copper nitrate and silver?

In certain reaction conditions, yes. Copper is more reactive than silver, so it should react with the nitrate molecule to form copper nitrate while precipitating the silver. *Are you thinking about separating silver from photographic fixer? Commonly a less expensive metal is used like iron (steel wool) to extract much of the silver.


Can you place silver nitrate solution in an iron vessel why or why not?

No. Iron is a more reactive metal than silver, so the iron will replace the silver in the silver nitrate solution, forming an iron nitrate solution and solid silver. Eventually, the iron container will be gone, its atoms having gone into the iron nitrate solution.
