Solution

The correct option is A AgNO3

A typical reaction with silver nitrate is to suspend a rod of copper in a solution of silver nitrate and leave it for a few hours. The silver nitrate reacts with copper to form hairlike crystals of silver metal and a blue solution of copper nitrate.

2AgNO3+CuCu(NO3)2+2Ag
