Silver on heating, force, drying, illumination, or sometimes spontaneously. To avoid the formation of such compounds, ammonia and acetylene should be kept away from silver equipment. Salts of silver with strongly oxidising acids such as silver chlorate and silver nitrate can explode on contact with materials that can be readily oxidised, such as organic compounds, sulfur and soot. Silver Silver is a chemical element with symbol Ag (from the Latin "", derived from the Proto-Indo-European "h₂erǵ": "shiny" or "white") and atomic number 47. A soft, white, lustrous transition metal, it exhibits the highest electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and reflectivity of any
Conductivity near the percolation threshold of the perfect insulator and just finite metallic clusters. The exponent t is one of the two critical exponents for electrical percolation. In the other well-known case of a superconductor-conductor mixture we have formula_18. This case is useful for the description below the percolation threshold: formula_19 for formula_20 Now, above the percolation threshold the conductivity becomes infinite, because of the infinite superconducting clusters. And also we get the second critical exponent s for the electrical percolation. In the region around the percolation threshold, the conductivity assumes a scaling form: formula_21 with formula_22 and formula_23 At the percolation threshold, the conductivity
