Question

A decomposition reaction of a salt which leaves behind a silvery metal.

Answer 1

Answer:

The breakdown reaction is

• $2AgNO_{3}$ → 2Ag + $2NO_{2}$ + $O_{2}$

Explanation:

• A salt called silver nitrate breaks down to produce silver metal.
• An inorganic substance with antibacterial properties is called silver nitrate.
• Potential cauterizing or sclerosing agents include silver nitrate. Silver nitrate has the chemical formula $AgNO_{3}$ and is an inorganic substance.
• Silver nitrate is coordinated in a trigonal planar structure when it is solid.
• The following is the balanced chemical equation for the breakdown reaction:

            $2AgNO_{3}$ → 2Ag +$2NO_{2}$ + $O_{2}$

Answer 2

Silver nitrate is a salt which decomposes and forms silver metal.

• $2AgNO_{3}$  → 2Ag + $2NO_{2}$ +$O_{2}$
• Silver Nitrate is an inorganic chemical with antiseptic activity.
• Silver nitrate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula AgNO3.
• In its solid form, silver nitrate is coordinated in a trigonal planar arrangement.
• Silver Nitrate is a prescription topical solution used in treating wounds and burns on the skin as an anti-infective agent.
• It is far less sensitive to light than the halides.
• This salt is a versatile precursor to many other silver compound.
