Silver Nitrate does not turn blue - it turns purple-black and then black. It was the basis for early Photography before the digital age.
the silver is displaced out of the compound because the copper is more reactive. It becomes copper nitrate.
they turn purple..
It turns black or dark in colour when silver nitrate is exposed to sunlight.
The colour of silver metal in water is whiteThe colour of copper nitrate in water is blue (due to the Cu++ ion).
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.

When testing silver nitrate, a whitish color will yield positive results. If the test is negative, the color will turn clear and it will remain transparent.
Silver nitrate is a compound. It consists of the metal silver and the compound nitrate. Nitrate consists of nitrogen and oxygen.
how is silver nitrate disposed of
Silver nitrate (AgNO3) is a silver salt.
Copper is more reactive than silver hence copper displaces silver from silver nitrate solution.hence the solution from colourless changes to blue.
Silver nitrate = AgNO3
