Why add dilute nitric acid with silver nitrate to test for halide ions?

The nitric acid reacts with other ions that might precipitate with silver nitrate. Doing this first gets these other unwanted precipitates out of the way. If you are testing with Fluoride as your halide remember that silver nitrate does not precipitate with Fluoride, so no precipitate does not mean that halide ions are not present.

Why is silver nitrate added to halide salts?
To form an insoluble silver halide.
How do the Halide ions react with dilute Nitric acid. I have a chemistry test tomorrow and I need to know how the halide ions react with Nitric acid after Silver Nitrate and ammonia have been added?
The Niritric acid is used to remove any ion without will contaminate the reaction. for example if there is any carbonate (CO3) then the nitric acid will react with it: 2 HNO3 (aq) & (CO3)-2 (aq) --> CO2 (g) & H2O (l) & 2 (NO3)- (aq)
What does silver nitrate detect?
The presence of halide ions
What happens when dilute nitric acid and silver nitrate solution is added to sodium chloride solution What is formed when you add silver nitrate and hydrochloric acid?
the solution changes to a white percipitate. Ionic Equation= Ag(+) + 2Cl(-) -----> AgCl(2) === ===
How do you make silver nitrate from powder?
If you think to a solution of silver nitrate dissolve the powder in water.

What effect does silver nitrate solution have upon each of the halide salt solutions?
The product is a silver halide insoluble in water.
What does iron and silver nitrate make?
iron nitric + silver

What are is the general reaction for the reaction of an organic halide with silver nitrate?
hyoliulo
What is the reaction between silver and dilute nitric acid?
confusion
What is the solute and solvent of stirling silver?
Silver is soluble in Nitric Acid producing silver nitrate.
Equation of silver nitrate in photography?
When making photographic film, silver nitrate is treated with halide salts of sodium or potassium to form insoluble silver halide in situ in photographic gelatin, which is then applied to strips of tri-acetate or polyester. AgNO3 + NaCl -------->AgCl(s) + NaNO3 .
Silver plus copper equals silver nitrate?
Wrong ! ! ! ! !Silver + Nitric Acid -----> Silver Nitrate + Water + Nitrogen DioxideAg + 2 HNO3 -----> AgNO3 + H2O + NO2
