To calculate the valency of silver nitrate (AgNO3), you would need to consider the valencies of the individual elements. The valency of silver (Ag) is +1, while the valency of nitrate ion (NO3) is -1. Since there is only one Ag ion in AgNO3, the overall valency of silver nitrate is +1 (1x+1 + 1x-1 = 0).
The symbol for nitrate is NO3-. The valency of nitrate is -1.
The valency of nitrate is calculated by considering the charge of the nitrogen atom (+5) and the overall charge of the nitrate ion (-1). Since there is one nitrogen atom and three oxygen atoms in the nitrate ion, the valency is calculated as (+5) + 3(-2) = -1.
The valency of silver is typically +1. However, silver can also exhibit a valency of +2 in certain compounds.
The chemical formula for aluminum nitrate is Al(NO3)3.
The valency of lead in lead nitrate is +2. Lead (Pb) is a transition metal that typically forms ionic compounds, such as lead nitrate (Pb(NO3)2), where the lead ion has a charge of +2.
