Copper is more reactive than silver hence copper displaces silver from silver nitrate solution.hence the solution from colourless changes to blue.

What type of solution is 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.


What would happen if a copper coin were kept immersed in a solution of silver nitrate write the word equation also?

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 .


Can you stir silver nitrate solution with a copper spoon why or why not?

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....


Do magnesium and copper nitrate react?

Yes, magnesium reacts with copper nitrate to form magnesium nitrate and copper. The reaction involves the displacement of copper from the copper nitrate solution by magnesium.


WHAT is the state symbol of copper nitrate solution?

The state symbol of copper nitrate solution would be (aq), indicating that it is dissolved in water.


When a piece of copper is placed in a lead nitrate solution what will happen?

A redox reaction will occur, with copper displacing lead from the lead nitrate solution to form copper nitrate and lead. The copper will turn into a reddish-brown color due to the formation of copper ions in the solution.


When copper (II) nitrate solution has aluminum foil placed in it starts to come out on the top.?

This reaction is an example of a displacement reaction, where aluminum displaces copper from copper (II) nitrate solution to form aluminum nitrate and copper metal. The copper metal appearing on top of the solution is a result of this displacement reaction.


NAME OF A metal that replaces silver from silver nitrate solution?

copper will replace silver in silver nitratesolution will precipitate silver and oxidize copper turning to copper nitrate


What happens when copper metal is put in zinc nitrate solution?

due to the transfer of electron the zinc nitrate forms to zinc, and copper is formed to copper nitrate. this is usually followed by half equations which are: Cu -> Cu ^2+ + 2e zn^2+ + 2e -> zn where e is electrons and 2+ is representative of the nitrate


Does copper nitrate react with water?

Copper nitrate dissolves in water, hence it is a chemical reaction.


If you used nitric acid to dissolve copper how could you remove the copper nitrate?

Heat the liquid to boil off excess water and the copper nitrate will crystalise out of the solution as it cools. Then filter to separate the crystals from the liquid.


What happen when you mix copper with copper nitrate?

When copper is mixed with copper nitrate, a chemical reaction occurs where the copper in the copper nitrate displaces the copper in the solid copper, forming copper(II) nitrate and releasing nitrogen dioxide gas. This reaction is a redox reaction, where copper is oxidized and the copper ions in the solution are reduced.
