Can a nickel spoon be used to stir a solution of silver nitrate. Support your answer with a reason given that : (E_(Ni^(2+)//Ni)^(@)=0.25V,E_(Ag^(+)//Ag)^(@)=+0.80V)

Answer»

Solution :No, a nickel spoon cannot be used to STIR a silver nitrate solution. This is because Ni has lower SRP VALUE than AG.
`:.` it will DISPLACE Ag from `AgNO_(3)` solution,
`:.` the solution will DESTROYED.
`Ni+2AgNO_(3)toNi(NO_(3))_(2)+2Ag`.
