This is because Copper being a more reactive metal than Silver displaces it from its salt...

The chemical equation is:

Cu + AgNO3 = Ag + Cu(NO3)2

Is hydrogen produced when copper reacts with silver nitrate?

No, hydrogen gas is not produced when copper reacts with silver nitrate. In this reaction, copper replaces silver in the silver nitrate solution, resulting in the formation of copper(II) nitrate and silver metal.


What is Silver Nitrate plus copper?

When silver nitrate is added to copper, a redox reaction occurs where the Cu from copper displaces the Ag from silver nitrate. This results in the formation of copper nitrate and silver metal as a solid precipitate.


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


If copper displaces silver from silver nitrate will silver displace copper ll nitrate?

No, copper will not displace silver from silver nitrate and silver will not displace copper from copper nitrate. This is because the reactivity series dictates that silver is below copper, so copper can displace silver but not vice versa.


How could you react silver nitrate and copper?

By dissolving the silver nitrate in water, then stirring finely divided copper into the water. The copper will displace silver from the silver nitrate as a solid and form copper nitrate in the solution.


Copper plus silver nitrate?

When copper is added to silver nitrate, a single displacement reaction occurs. The copper will displace the silver in the compound, forming copper(II) nitrate and silver. The silver will precipitate out of solution as a solid.


Why would sliver nitrate precipitate when in contact with copper?

Silver nitrate does not precipitate in this case; elemental silver does. In this reaction, silver nitrate reacts with copper to form elemental silver and copper II nitrate. The silver, which is a metal, is insoluble in water.


Name of the product of copper and silver nitrate reaction?

copper nitrate :)


Copper will react with silver nitrate to form copper nitrate and silver?

In certain reaction conditions, yes. Copper is more reactive than silver, so it should react with the nitrate molecule to form copper nitrate while precipitating the silver. *Are you thinking about separating silver from photographic fixer? Commonly a less expensive metal is used like iron (steel wool) to extract much of the silver.


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....


What is the word equation for the reaction between copper and silver nitrate?

It would produce Silver and a blue solid called Copper Nitrate (Cu(NO3)2). It is caused by a replacement reaction where Copper replaced Silver in Copper Nitrate. The equation goes like this: Cu + Ag(NO3)2 → Ag + Cu(NO3)2
