Silver is produced in the explosion of a supernova. This process is the mechanism for creating many of the elements more massive than Iron, which is as heavy an element as may be manufactured by fusion in a star such as our Sun.

It accumulated on Earth from the debris that eventually formed Earth. It is fairly easily dissolved, and forms a precipitate when the temperature and pressure of its solute fluid drop sufficiently. It is one of the elements that are often found as the native metal.

Is silver found in a compound form or in a pure element form?

Silver is typically found in nature in the form of compounds, such as silver sulfide or silver chloride. However, it can also be found in its pure elemental form, especially when it occurs as native silver in deposits of ore.


What other elements can combine with silver?

Silver can combine with elements like oxygen to form silver oxide (Ag2O), chlorine to form silver chloride (AgCl), sulfur to form silver sulfide (Ag2S), and more. These combinations can result in the formation of various silver compounds with different properties and uses.

Can a reduction of silver form ag plus?

Yes, a reduction of silver can form Ag+ ions. When silver undergoes reduction, it loses one electron to form Ag+ ions, which have a positive charge.


Will li2co3 and CSI form a precipitate?

Yes, when lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3) to form silver carbonate (Ag2CO3) and lithium nitrate (LiNO3), a white precipitate of silver carbonate will form due to the low solubility of silver carbonate in water.

Can silver atoms form a covalent bond?

No, silver atoms typically do not form covalent bonds with other atoms. Silver is a transition metal and tends to lose electrons to form positively charged ions rather than share electrons in a covalent bond.
