प्रश्न
Why cannot we store AgNO3 solution in copper vessel?
उत्तर
Copper is above silver in the electrochemical series and is thus more reactive than silver. So, copper displaces silver from silver nitrate. Hence, we cannot store AgNO3 solution in copper vessel.
\[\ce{Cu + 2AgNO3 ->\underset{Silver}{2Ag} + \underset{Copper nitrate}{Cu(NO3)2}}\]
