BACKGROUND:
Silver nitrate a soluble chemical compound. It is far less sensitive to light than the halides.

SILVER NITRATE POWDER APPLICATIONS:
Silver nitrate is a versatile precursor to many other silver compounds. It is used in many applications including medical, chemical and photographic uses. Some of the major applications include:

Precursor to Other Silver Compounds
Silver nitrate is commonly used to make other silver compounds. It is the least expensive, soluble in numerous solvents, and relatively stable to light.

Halide abstraction
Silver nitrate reacts with halide anions to produce the insoluble silver halides.

Organic Synthesis
Silver nitrate is used in organic synthesis for deprotection and oxidations.

Biology
Silver nitrate is used for silver staining. It demonstrates proteins and nucleic acids, and it is also used to demonstrate proteins in PAGE GELS.

Medicine
Silver salts have antiseptic properties, and are often dropped into newborn babies eyes at birth. This can prevent contraction of gonorrhea or chlamydia from the mother. Blindness and infections of the eye are reduced when this method is used.
