2x 25g of Silver nitrate - low prices

Hegi - 1-6-2016 at 10:24

Hello,

recently I´ve prepared 50 grams of pure silver nitrate. They are packed in two plastic bottles - 25 g each. It was prepared by dissolving relatively pure silver metal (97-98%) in high grade concentrated nitric acid. The product was recrystallized two times from distilled water. The first fraction of crystallization is really pure (99%+). The second is a mix of the first fraction and the second one, but still appreciable quality. U2U if interested. :)

1 x 25 g for 20$/25g + shipping (ca. 5$ - depends on locality) - 99%+

That batch you sold me is Great.

Better than my own prep, judged only by the colour.

You're obsessed with the stuff.

When you've sold it all, move on to Uranium Nitrate ;)

What is your method of assay?

That is really good question. I haven´t done an analysis of the product but assuming the silver was pure enough, HNO3 as well. The product was recrystallized two times from distilled water, filtered off (leaving approximately another 40 grams of the substance in the solution with impurities of course), washed with little amount of ice cold distilled water dried in the dark for 5 days. :cool:
