  • Silver Carbonate and Nitric Acid Reaction: A Detailed Explanation
    The reaction of Ag2CO3 with HNO3 is as follows:

    $$Ag_2CO_3(s) + 2HNO_3(aq) \rightarrow 2AgNO_3(aq) + H_2O(l) + CO_2(g)$$

    In this reaction, silver carbonate (Ag2CO3) reacts with nitric acid (HNO3) to form silver nitrate (AgNO3), water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2). The silver nitrate dissolves in the aqueous solution, while the carbon dioxide escapes as a gas.
