The answer for your question is as Followed:

_________________________________________________

The solid copper reacts with the silver nitrate solution (in water) to produce solid silver and copper nitrate. This is called a redox reaction. The copper gives up 2 electrons (oxidized) and transfers them to 2 silver ions to produce solid silver (reduction).

Copper is more reactive than silver. Hence, it displaces silver from the silver nitrate solution according to the given reaction. The silver thus formed is deposited on the surface of copper, thereby giving it a white shining appearance. The solution becomes blue due to the formation of copper nitrate.

ankitariya: Copper metal is more reactive than silver metal thus, whencopper coin is kept immersed insilver nitrate solution for some time, it displaces silver fromsilver nitrate solution. The grey solid crystal of Ag metal are seen growing on the copper coin and solution turns blue in colour.
