It is true some food products labeled as baby carrots are made by cutting down larger roots, and that these items can be treated with chlorine during processing. However, itâs not true thereâs anything wrong with the larger carrots theyâre made from, or that the resultant vegetables reach consumers in a chlorine-soaked state.
The silver is reduced to elemental silver and the copper is oxidized to copper(II): Cu(0) + 2AgNO 3 = Cu(NO 3) 2 + 2Ag(0). The silver crystallizes at the surface of the copper and the copper wire quickly becomes coated with a bunch of elemental silver.
Silver nitrate, or AgNO3, mixed with distilled water is a solution. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance dissolves in another substance. Explained by ABetterChemText, the solute is broken down completely into individual ions or molecules. In water, AgNO3 disassociates into Ag+ ions and NO3- ions.
