Silver is a metal and under normal circumstances, a solid.
That's a good question. What didhappen to it?I wouldn't expect much of anything to happen, since copper is a more active metal than silver. In fact, a copper plate dipped into a silver nitrate solution should grow silver crystals as the copper ionizes and replaces silver in solution.
"W silver plate" typically means that the item is made of a base metal (such as brass or copper) that has been plated with a thin layer of silver. This type of plating is often used to give the appearance of silver at a more affordable price point.
silver is a metal because it gets attrcted by a magnet
Based on the mark and purity of the silver it may be. If it's .925, it's much more valuable than silver plate. Of course the age of the IS piece could have a dramatic effect on the price the item will go for.
No, it has a thin plate of silver on a metal like copper or similar. As a general rule, if it includes the word "Plate"; It's not solid silver.
No, alpha plate is not silver plate. Alpha plate is a type of base metal plating that contains alpha brass, which typically consists of copper and zinc. Silver plate, on the other hand, is a thin layer of silver that is electroplated onto a base metal.
Silver plate refers to a layer of silver that is applied over a base metal, typically through processes like electroplating. While it contains a thin layer of silver, the underlying metal is not silver, so the actual silver content is minimal. The value and quality of silver plate items depend on the thickness of the silver layer and the base material used.
A silver plate would be a heterogeneous mixture if there is a metal alloy in it also. If it was pure silver, then it would be a homogeneous mixture. Assuming that there is a metal alloy comprised with the silver plate, it is most likely a heterogeneous mixture.

A spoon marked "International Deep Silver" is typically silver plate rather than sterling silver. International Silver Company produced silver-plated items under this brand, indicating that the spoon has a base metal with a thin layer of silver applied to it. In contrast, sterling silver is made of 92.5% pure silver and is usually marked with "sterling" or "925."
Both are silver plated, but silver on copper tells you what kind of metal is used as an underlay. Silver plated copper is more valuable than silver on a white metal or zinc underlay.
Technically you can refine silver plate from metal items. However, silver plate by weight is a tiny fraction of a percent of the total item. It is rarely worth the expense of the refining process.
Inlaid silver has two definitions. It is can be used to refer to a metal that is coated with silver. It can also mean a piece of silver that is embedded in another substance.
Yes, Rogers Bros is known for producing silver-plated flatware, including extra plate items. The term "extra plate" indicates a thicker layer of silver applied to the base metal, enhancing durability and appearance. Items from the Rogers Bros line are often collectible and recognized for their craftsmanship in silver plating.
If a silver rim plate is put into a microwave, it can cause sparking, arcing, and potential damage to the microwave. Silver is a metal that reflects microwaves, causing them to bounce around erratically and create a potentially hazardous situation. It is advised to avoid putting any metal objects, including plates with silver rims, in a microwave.
