AgNO3 dissociates into Ag+ and NO3- ions in water and from these Ag+ions combine with Cl- in saline water (from ionised NaCl or CaCl2) to form the white AgCl precipitate.
So from the amount of AgNO3 consumed we can find Chloride content of water, which mostly correspondenses with salinity.
The nitrate ions are not reacting (all nitrates are/stay soluble, thus ionised)

What is the molecular formula for silver nitrate?
The molecular formula for silver nitrate is AgNO3.This white solid is often used as a precursor to many other silver compounds.
Silver nitrate is used for testing of which chemicals?
Iodide
Why is silver nitrate not used in electroplating silver?
The migration of Ag+ in silver nitrate solution is very fast leading to an uneven deposition of the metal silver on the substrate. Hence not been used for electroplating.
What are the uses of silver nitrate?
i think it is used in making mirrors
What arethe uses of Silver nitrate?
Used in photographic films as coatings
What is molecular formula for silver nitrate?
The molecular formula of silver nitrate is AgNO3. Silver nitrate is extensively used in analytical chemistry as a reagent. You can take silver nitrate solution in a beaker and electrolyze it to get silver in the negative potential.
What is the name of AgNO2 compound?
Silver nitrate is the English name of the compound AgNO3, used for photography and several biological uses. Please see the related links for additional information.
Which Salt is used in photography?

Is silver nitrate harmful when used in processed food?
Silver nitrate is not toxic, although it is certainly not nutritious. Normally it is used in photography, not in food. Personally I wouldn't eat it.
Why is silver nitrate used in cauterization of wounds?
= = = Silver Nitrate =Jump to: navigation, searchSilver nitrate is a chemical compound with chemical formula AgNO3. This nitrate of silver is a light-sensitive ingredient in photographic film and is a poisonous, corrosive compound. Silver nitrate crystals can be produced by dissolving silver in nitric acid and evaporating the solution. The compound notably stains skin a greyish or black color that is made visible after exposure to sunlight. Silver nitrate has been used as an antiseptic, dropped into newborn babies' eyes at birth. This is to prevent contraction of gonorrhoea or chlamydia from their mother. A very weak solution is used for this, (about 1%) and there are very few side effects. Mythically, silver nitrate was used as a method of killing vampires, with the silver nitrate generally being injected into a bullet cartridge or used in a hypodermic needle. Fused silver nitrate, shaped into sticks, was traditionally called lunar caustic and used as a cauterizing agent. It can also be used in wound management to 'knock back' over-granulation of tissue in healing wounds such as ulcers and sinuses. [edit]Silver nitrate can be used in a medical environment as a chemical cauterizing agent and medicinal caustic. A typical applicator is composed of 75% silver nitrate with 25% potassium nitrate. As the silver nitrate contacts with water (in the blood) the compound goes into solution forming nitric acid. The acid subsequently is responsible for the cautery effect. As mentioned above this will typically result in a black or greyish staining of the skin. This staining is caused by the accumulation of the silver and will typically go away as the body rids itself of the mineral. Retrieved from "http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Silver_Nitrate"
