Question

in the refining of silver, the recovery of silver from silver nitrate solution involved displacement of copper metal . write down the reaction involved ​

Answer 1

Cu(s)+2AgNO3(aq)--->Cu(NO3)2(aq)+2Ag(s).

Answer 2

In the refining of silver, the recovery of silver from silver nitrate solution involved displacement by copper metal. Write down the reaction involved.

As copper is more reactive than silver, it displace Ag from AgNO3 solution.

Cu + AgNO3 ----> Cu(NO3)2 + Ag
