In the silver plating of copper, K[Ag(CN)₂] is used instead
of AgNO₃. The reason is
(a) a thin layer of Ag is formed on Cu
(b) more voltage is required
(c) Ag⁺ ions are completely removed from solution
(d) less availability of Ag⁺ ions, as Cu cannot displace Ag
from [Ag(CN)₂]⁻ ion

(d) less availability of Ag⁺ ions, as Cu cannot displace Ag
from [Ag(CN)₂]⁻ ion
Explanation:
Cu + 2AgNO₃ ------------> Cu(NO₃)₂ + Ag
Copper is more electropositive than silver, so it readily precipitate silver from their salt (Ag+) solution. So AgNO₃ cannot be used in silver plating process of copper.
In k[Ag(CN)₂] solution, a complex anion is formed which is [Ag(CN)₂] because of this Ag₊ ions are less available in the solution and Cu cannot displace Ag from this complex ion.
