Might be interesting to test for nitrates. They are one of the common forms of silver that is that soluble.
There is no compound of silver that I can find that is orange. It could be a combination of a yellow and a red compound of silver, but I suspect it is just food coloring. Compounds of silver that are yellow and red.. Yellow Silver arsinite Silver Bromide (pretty well insoluble) Silver Carbonate Silver Chlorite Silver Fluoride Silver difluoride Silver Periodate Silver Iodide Silver mercury iodide (insoluble) Silver Orthophosphate Silver Orthotellurate (insoluble) Silver Tellurite (insoluble) Silver Tungstate Yellow brown Silver nitroplatinate Red Silver arsinate Silver Chromate Silver dichtomate Silver Indomercurate (insoluble) Silver thioantimonite (insoluble) Silver thioarsenite (insoluble Marshall [email protected] wrote: > Julie > > The CS that you sent that is sold as 500 ppm is the type that I have > seen twice before.
