Question

State a double decomposition reaction of silver nitrate reacting with an acid and cite
the characteristic observed here.

Answer 1

Answer:

Chemical Compounds are of two types. They are classified as organic and inorganic compounds. Silver Nitrate is an inorganic compound. Its chemical formula is AgNO3. When Silver (Ag) reacts with Nitric Acid (HNO3), the chemical reaction results in the formation of Silver Nitrate. The Symbol Ag used for Silver originates from the Latin word “Argentum”. This reaction is done under very controlled conditions because this results in the emission of toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides.Silver Nitrate is also called as Lunar Caustic. It kills microorganisms and will also react with compounds in human flesh. That is why it has been used in the medical industry The word "Caustic" means which can corrode. Improper use of Lunar caustic on the human body can cause severe damage. The alchemists believed that the chemical silver was always associated with the moon. The Latin word for Moon is Luna, so it was named Lunar Caustic.The chemical reaction is represented as given below: 3 Ag + 4 HNO3  → 3 AgNO3 + 2 H2O + NO
