Question

Can we place silver nitrate solution in a iron vessel? Why or why not?

Answer 1

We should not place silver nitrate solution in an iron vessel. This is because , iron is more reactive than silver. So , it would displace silver from its solution of silver .

Answer 2

Hey friend, Harish here.

Here is your answer:

We cannot place a silver nitrate solution in an iron vessel. This is because iron is more reactive than silver, hence an displacement reaction will take place.

The Reaction is :

Fe(s) + 2AgNO₃ (aq)  →  Fe(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2Ag.
