Here's why:

* Silver (Ag) normally exists in a +1 oxidation state. This means it typically loses one electron to form a stable ion, Ag+.

* Nitrate (NO3-) is a polyatomic ion with a -1 charge.

Therefore, the correct formula for the compound formed between silver and nitrate is AgNO3, which is called silver nitrate.
