Experimental Design
 
  1. Record the mass of your silver nitrate crystals here.   _________
     
  2. CALCULATE the mass of silver in the sample. (This is your theoretical mass of silver.)

     

     

     

  3. Write the single replacement reaction you will use to extract silver metal from ions in solution.

     

     

  4. Write the procedures you will use to recover the silver below:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  5. At today's market price, your silver metal is worth $___________
Analysis & Conclusion: Compare your experimental results with the theoretical mass expected.
