Silver Nitrate VS

AgNO₃ = 169.9

For a 0.1m solution Dissolve 17.0 g of silver nitrate in water and dilute to 1000.0 mL with the same solvent.

Standardisation. Dissolve 50 mg of sodium chloride in water, add 5 mL of dilute nitric acid and dilute to 50 mL with water. Titrate with the silver nitrate solution, determining the end-point potentiometrically (2.2.20).

1 mL of 0.1 M silver nitrate is equivalent to 5.844 mg of NaCl.

Storage Protected from light.

For a 0.001m solution Dilute 5 mL of 0.1m silver nitrate VS to 500 mL with water.
