Detailed information about the equation 2Li + 2AgNO3 -> 2LiNO3 + 2Ag:
This chemical equation describes a chemical reaction between lithium (Li) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) to produce lithium nitrate (LiNO3) and silver (Ag). This reaction belongs to the substitution reaction category, in which the Li+ ion replaces the Ag+ ion, resulting in lithium nitrate and silver. -
Reaction conditions:
This reaction takes place at room temperature, with no special conditions required. -
Reaction process:
When Li comes into contact with the AgNO3 solution, the Li+ ions will replace the Ag+ ions in the silver nitrate molecules, forming lithium nitrate and silver. The silver will appear in the form of a grayish solid after the reaction. -
Observed phenomenon:
When Li is gradually added to the AgNO3 solution, a bubbling phenomenon will be observed, gradually forming a gray sediment at the bottom. This is the silver produced during the reaction. The solution after the reaction will be a lithium nitrate solution.
