In the refining of silver, the recovery of silver from silver nitrate solution involved displacement by copper metal. Write down the reaction involved.
The reactions in which one element displaces or takes the place of another element in a compound, are known as displacement reactions. The general equation for displacement reaction is,
A + B-C → A-C + B.
Example: When copper sulphate reacts with Zinc, Zinc displaces copper and forms Zinc sulphate and Copper is deposited.
$\ CuSO_{4} \ ( aq) \ +\ Zn\ ( s) \ \rightarrow \ ZnSO_{4}( aq) \ +\ Cu( s)$
In the refining of silver, the recovery of silver from silver nitrate solution involved displacement by copper metal.
$2AgNO_{3} \ ( aq) \ +\ Cu\ ( s) \ \rightarrow \ Cu( NO_{3})_{2} \ ( aq) \ +\ 2Ag\ ( s)$
