Why does silver precipitate by electrolysis?
Generally speaking, silver ions will precipitate when they meet halogen:

(1) Silver fluoride is soluble, with small F radius, weak ionic polarization and ionic compound!

(2) Chlorine, bromine and iodine ions are relatively large, and the ionic polarization is strong, and ionic compounds are converted into covalent compounds!

(3) The larger the ion radius, the stronger the polarization, and silver arsenic is the silver halide precipitate with the smallest solubility product!

Silver is a transition metal, chemical symbol Ag. Silver is one of the metals known and used in ancient times, and it is an important precious metal. Silver exists in the form of simple substance in nature, but most of it exists in silver mines in the form of bound state. The physical and chemical properties of silver are relatively stable, with good thermal and electrical conductivity, flexibility and ductility, and extremely high reflectivity, reaching more than 99%, which has many important uses.
