Marshall, I've gotten to thinking: if silver chloride disolves little by little, tiny amounts getting into the filtrate, isn't it likely that the same would be true for the silver oxides? After all, aren't the oxides of silver even more soluble than is the chloride.
I'm asking because the current, widely used practice is to satrurate ceramic purifiers with concentrated CS, which then goes through reactions in drying, ending up with the oxides. I guess what I'm asking is: how could this be a problem for silver chloride and not for silver oxides? And if a 'precendent' of sorts has been set, by allowing the oxides, why not the chloride? Or is my chemistry off the mark? Reid -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
