Whats the difference between silver nitrate and silver sulfadiazine?

"Silver sulfadiazine provides a steady supply of silver ions over a long period of time where as other silver salts such as silver nitrate release a large amount of silver ions all at once. If silver is employed as the primary antimicrobial agent in burn wound creams, the burn wound needs a steady supply of silver ions over a long period of time to kill off any microbes that could possibly infect the wound until it heals."


Is silver nitrate in paint?

I guess you could put it in there. It has antimicrobial properties, so you could make an antimicrobial paint with it. The problem with using it in that application is it's not all that safe--it's poisonous and corrosive.


How could you make a pure sample of solid silver chloride starting with silver nitrate solution?

Add hydrochloric acid to silver nitrate and stir well to ensure it is all reacted. Silver chloride will precipitate out and is fairly insoluble. Filter the solution and collect the filtrate on the filter paper. Rinse a few times with water to wash off the excess acid. Dry the filtrate in the oven. The result is pure silver chloride. Note this is sensitive to UV light, so this is best done in a dark room under a red lamp.


If yellow precipitate was obtained with silver nitrate could you right away conclude that only Bromine or Iodine is present in your compound?

Silver compounds are mostly insoluble (except silver nitrate of course) so you can safely assume that the precipitate you obtained was a silver compound and knowing silver bromide forms a yellow precipitate, it is a good bet to guess there is bromide ions (note ions not bromine) present. your compound is likely a bromide salt rather than bromine water or pure bromine (i'm assuming this is a high school lab report). but if your test compound was fuming reddish brown fumes then it is probably bromine water


Explain the effect of the nitrate ion in solution on the color emission?

The nitrate ion is the oxidizing agent in the compound without it you could not burn the chemicals and you could not produce a spectrum so there would be no emission of color

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.

WHAT happens when acid zinc chloride is added to silver nitrate?

There is a big explosion. If you are anywhere near the explosion, you could get melenosis

How could you determine whether a white powder was zinc sulfide or silver nitrate using hydrochloric acid solution?

To determine what the white substance is we must add it to HCl.


Is salt indestructible?

No. It has a melting point, which is relatively high, and it can be dissolved in water. Once disolved in water, to form a Sodium chloride solution, if some other substance, such as Silver nitrate could be added which would produce a Sodium nitrate solution and a precipitate of Silver chloride. If this were done carefully no Sodium chloride would remain so you could say that it had been "destroyed."


How could you detect the presence of chloride negative ion?

By adding silver nitrate to the compound. If a White precipitate is formed, then it means chloride ion is present.


How could you Detect the presence of cl-?

To detect the presence of CI- ion, add silver nitrate solution. A white opalescence to cloudy precipitate of silver chloride will form and confirm the presence of CI- ion.


Where could you find nitrogen in solids?
