∙ 7y agoThey are similar.
They are all minerals.
The elements Copper (Cu) and Silver (Ag) may be in the same group, but they are completely different elements. This means they have a different amount of electrons. Copper has 29 electrons, wheras Silver has 47.
Different color, hardness and scarcity. Both tarnish when exposed to oxygen, but silver oxide conducts electricity well, copper oxide does not.
elements
As copper is more reactive than silver copper will displace silver and will become copper nitrate and silver is left by its own from the reaction
similar, they comprise a family
Similar it that they have 10d (full d) electrones + 1s electrone

Copper is a metallic element. There is no equivalent. Silver has similar (but slightly higher) conductivity. There ar evarious alloys of copper that are similar but not the same.

The elements platinum, silver, and copper are similar to gold.
copper, silver, iron
Copper and silver are in the same group (11 or copper group) and of course have some similarities.

No, it has a thin plate of silver on a metal like copper or similar. As a general rule, if it includes the word "Plate"; It's not solid silver.
