If a silver certificate is worth 500.00 why is the dealer price 1.25?

Because you didn't specify the bill's date or series letter. Common-date (1957) $1 silver certificates are in fact only worth 1.25. The buying price is $1.25 because that's the average price for 1957 silver certificates. They're very common among collectors and none of them should be worth anything like $500.

A dealer will only pay $1.25 because that is the current market price. Whoever quoted a 3-figure price was mistaken. 1957-series $1 bills are very common among collectors and in circulated condition are not worth anywhere near $500.

Is a silver certificate backed by 1 ounce of silver?
Silver certificates were backed by specific dollar amounts of silver. That is, a $1 silver certificate was backed by $1 worth of silver in the Treasury, a $5 certificate was backed by $5 worth of silver, etc. The government maintained a fixed price for silver bullion so the bills were indirectly backed by a specific weight. However the fixed price wasn't $1/troy ounce but $1.29, so the weight was roughly 0.77 troy ounces, or about 24 gm.

What is the value of registration no 10222 silver 100.00 federal reserve note made in 2000 with a certificate of authenticity?
It's not a Federal Reserve note, and the certificate of "authenticity" is worth roughly the paper it's printed on. It's a privately-manufactured item sold for its metal value. You'd need to know how much silver it contains, how pure it is, and the current price of silver bullion (see a site such as kitco.com for prices). Multiply the weight by the purity and by the price of silver, then take off about 40 to 50 percent to get an idea of what a metal dealer would pay.
