In the following find basic chemical equations for CS production.
1) 3 Ag + 2H2O + e ----> 2 AgOH + H2 + Ag
2) 2 AgOH ---- > Ag2 O + H2O
In equation 1)
silver wire + water + battery ----> silver hydroxide + hydrogen +
colloidal
bubbles
silver
In equation 2) Silver hydroxide ----> silver oxide + water
