The oxidation state of Ag in
is +2. But, +2 is an unstable oxidation state of Ag.
Therefore, whenever is formed, silver readily accepts an electron to form Ag+. This helps to bring the oxidation state of Ag down from +2 to a more stable state of +1. As a result,
acts as a very strong oxidizing agent.
I hope my answer help to u and right
