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.
When copper metal is placed in a solution of silver nitrate, a reddish-brown solid called copper(I) oxide is formed on the surface of the copper. This occurs due to a single displacement reaction where copper displaces silver from the silver nitrate solution.
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.
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.
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
A displacement reaction, in which the copper dissolves to form copper nitrate and replaces silver ions in the original silver nitrate, reducing the silver ions to metallic silver.
A layer of silver will form on the copper metal surface through a displacement reaction, where the copper atoms are replaced by silver atoms in the silver nitrate solution. This reaction is known as a redox reaction, where copper is oxidized and silver is reduced.
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.

copper will replace silver in silver nitratesolution will precipitate silver and oxidize copper turning to copper 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.
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.

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.
copper nitrate :)

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 .
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....
