Silver Nitrate, Crystal, Reagent ACS

ASSAY 99.0+%

CAS: 7761-88-8

This product meets or exceeds the Specifications prepared by the Committee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society (ACS). It is suitable for use in PRECISE LABORATORY ANALYTICAL WORK OF A GENERAL NATURE.

Silver nitrate is a soluble chemical compound with chemical formula AgNO3. This nitrate of silver is a versatile precursor to many silver compounds, such as those used in photography, although this salt is far less sensitive to light than the halides. A spill of AgNO3 solution on the skin results in a white stain which turns dark after exposure to sunlight(UV radiation), after long periods of no sunlight the stain may revert back to white/light purple. The stain usually goes away as the skin peels, which takes about 1.5 weeks.

As with all silver salts, silver nitrate is toxic and corrosive.[9] Little exposure to the chemical will not produce immediate or even any side effects other than the purple skin stains, but with more exposure, side effects will become more noticeable. It is also very poisonous and can cause burns. Long-term exposure can cause permanent blue-grey staining of eyes, mouth, throat and skin, (argyria) and may cause eye damage. Short contact can lead to deposition of black silver stains on the skin. Besides being very destructive of mucous membranes, it is a skin and eye irritant.
