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


Copper plus silver nitrate?

the silver is displaced out of the compound because the copper is more reactive. It becomes copper nitrate.


When copper reacts with silver nitrate what element is set free?

If the silver nitrate is in aqueous solution and the copper is solid in contact with the solution of silver nitrate, copper atoms will dissolve as ions from the surface of the copper and be replaced by silver atoms formed from the silver ions in solution. This reaction will continue until the entire surface of the copper in contact with the solution is covered with silver. The chemical driving force for this reaction is displacement of one element from its compounds by another element that is higher in the electromotive series than the element displaced.


Is silver more reactive than copper?

Suspend a copper wire in a solution of silver nitrate. Over the course of a few hours the silver nitrate will convert to copper II nitrate, turning the solution blue. Elemental silver will precipitate.


What is the substance when copper and silver nitrate is combined?

from what I've seen, if the reaction is being done in distilled water, then the copper attracts the silver nitrate to it and the copper gets a thick film that is very easily removed and leaves tarnished copper looking bright and brand new.

What is the difference between silver plate and silver on copper?

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.


What is Silver Nitrate plus copper?

As copper is more reactive than silver copper will displace silver and will become copper nitrate and silver is left by its own from the reaction


What is the metallic composition of a 1960 Canadian dime?

Canadian dimes minted between 1920 and 1966 contain 80% silver and 20% copper.


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


1966 dime copper and silver different?

In 1966, dimes in circulation were made of a copper-nickel alloy, not pure copper or silver. The composition of the dime was 91.67% copper and 8.33% nickel. Silver dimes were minted until 1964 and contained 90% silver. The change in composition was due to rising silver prices.


What metals are not silver gray in color?

Copper and gold.


What is the balanced equation of copper and copper nitrate?

One balanced equation for the reaction between elemental copper and silver nitrate is Cu + AgNO3 -> CuNO3 + Ag.


What would cause silver to turn a copper color?

if you apply to much heat to it can cause the copper to pool at the heat source. this happens because of the different melting temperature between the 2 metals. silver usually has about 7.5% copper in it.

Is silver heavier then copper?

Silver is almost twice as heavy as copper.


Are copper and silver elements or compounds?

Copper and Silver are both elements. However the copper and silver objects you find in everyday life are unlikly to be 100% pure copper or silver. These objects will be made with copper or silver alloyed to other metals to improve its properties or decrease its cost.
