Copper Nitrate
Silver crystallizes on the surface of the copper as it gets absorbed into the water
No, we cannot stir silver nitrate solution with a copper spoon because , copper is more reactive than silver. Thus,it would displace silver from the silver nitrate solution forming copper nitrate....
first of all which are we talking? Copper (I) Nitrate or Copper (II) Nitrate 2nd, It is an Ionic Solution that will react with any metal except mercury, silver, platinum, and gold.
By dissolving the silver nitrate in water, then stirring finely divided copper into the water. The copper will displace silver from the silver nitrate as a solid and form copper nitrate in the solution.
copper is placed above the silver in the ractivity series which indicates that copper is more reactive than silver . when a copper coin is kept immersed in a solution of siler nitrate ,silver from its solution will deposit on copper coin . copper slowly displaces silver from the silver nitrate solution and the colour of solution changes from colourless to blue due to the formation of copper nitrate . the copper coin will disappear and silver will percipate out .
Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag Silver breaks its bond with nitrate and Metallic Copper bonds to the nitrate with Silver changing into its metallic state or 0 charge state.

If the silver nitrate is in aqueous solution and the copper is solid in contact with the solution of silver nitrate, copper atoms will dissolve as ions from the surface of the copper and be replaced by silver atoms formed from the silver ions in solution. This reaction will continue until the entire surface of the copper in contact with the solution is covered with silver. The chemical driving force for this reaction is displacement of one element from its compounds by another element that is higher in the electromotive series than the element displaced.
Cu(s) + AgNO3(aq) => Ag(s) + CuNO3(aq)
from what I've seen, if the reaction is being done in distilled water, then the copper attracts the silver nitrate to it and the copper gets a thick film that is very easily removed and leaves tarnished copper looking bright and brand new.

a solution of copper nitrate is supposed to be acidic i.e. pH<7, AND EXACT VALUE DEPENDS on the concentration of salt in solution.
Nothing. Copper is lower than iron in the electromotive series and will not replace the iron in the iron nitrate solution.
