Cu(NO3)2 + Sn = ?
CuNO3 + Sn = Stannic acid and no visible displacement, nitrate was lightly acidic.

Did you get any fumes? Any precipitate? Color shift?

No fumes, precipitate white jelly Stannic acid, blue

Odd. Surely you mean Cu(NO3)2, btw.
How long did you leave it?

Yes, sorry, wrong valency, precipitate formed almost immediately.

The stannic hydroxide ppt is going to be voluminous. Leaving it sitting for a while, and you'll probably start to see copper metal forming.

Was there for couple of days, with out any visible displacement.
Maybe not enough Sn and solution too acidic, I will try this experiment again.

@Romix: In the picture you posted, it appears that you'd started to dissolve circuit boards in the solution. Was this after the tin, or was it your
source of tin?

And probably several other metals.

Source of tin and silver, then. But remember that not every PCB uses lead free solder, what with those damned whiskers and all.

How did you make the nitrate? Acid plus copper?
