Silver cyanide reaction with other anions. Some silver cyanides are luminescent. Both AgCN and KAg(CN) have been used in silver-plating solutions since at least 1840 when the Elkington brothers patented their recipe for a silver-plating solution. A typical, traditional silver-plating solution would contain KAg(CN) 15-40 gL, KCN 12-120 gL and KCO gL. Silver cyanide Silver cyanide is the chemical compound with the formula AgCN. This white solid forms upon treatment of solutions containing Ag with cyanide. This precipitation step is used in some schemes to recover silver from solution. Silver cyanide is used in silver-plating. Its structure consist of -[Ag-CN]- chains in
Symbol "symbol", which he used to stand for something that is unknown and that cannot be made clear or precise. An example of a symbol in this sense is Christ as a symbol of the archetype called "self". For example, written languages are composed of a variety of different symbols that create words, p. . Through these written words humans communicate with each other. Kenneth Burke described "Homo sapiens" as a "symbol-using, symbol making, and symbol misusing animal" to suggest that a person creates symbols as well as misuses them. One example he uses to indicate what he means by the
