THE ELEMENT SILVER BY: Kyleen Overstreet

Properties of Silver Pure silver has a white metallic luster Silver is slightly harder than gold It’s hardness is 3.25 mohs Silver has the greatest electrical &thermal conductivity Silver is stable in pure air and water, even though it will tarnish through contact with the ozone

Silvers uses Dental alloys Silver paints are made for printing circuits Electrical contacts Silver is used to make a large amount of jewelry Table ware (forks, knives, spoons)

Basic facts About Silver It’s atomic weight is 107.8682 It’s symbol is Ag Silver is a solid Silver is in the fifth period of the periodic table Silver is slightly harder than gold Its atomic number is 47 Silver is very strong Silver has many uses The element silver has no discovery date We do not know who discovered it The element silver is not a man made element This element silver has been know ever since ancient times
