Silver perchlorate Silver perchlorate Silver perchlorate is the chemical compound with the formula AgClO. This white solid forms a monohydrate and is mildly deliquescent. It is a useful source of the Ag ion, although the presence of perchlorate presents risks. It is used as a catalyst in organic chemistry. Silver perchlorate is created by heating a mixture of perchloric acid with silver nitrate. Alternatively, it can be prepared by the reaction between barium perchlorate and silver sulfate, or from the reaction of perchloric acid with silver oxide. Silver perchlorate is noteworthy for its solubility in aromatic solvents such as benzene (52.8 g/L)
Silver acetylide silver acetylide in 1866. Silver acetylide can be formed on the surface of silver or high-silver alloys, e.g. in pipes used for transport of acetylene, if silver brazing was used in their joints. Silver acetylide is not soluble in water and is not appreciably soluble in any other solvent. Silver acetylide Silver acetylide is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula AgC, a metal acetylide. The compound can be regarded as a salt of the weak acid, acetylene. The salt's anion consists of two carbon atoms linked by a triple bond. The alternate name "silver carbide" is rarely used, although
