Silver Nitrate Live Stream

[Streamed on YouTube 8-8-2020]
In this video I try to synthesize silver nitrate from what I thought was sterling silver. As it turns out it wasn't 😛 so the viewers and I proceed to try to figure out what my mystery metal is.

Here's the silver nitrate procedure from science madness:

The reaction I want to observe with the silver nitrate I explained really poorly, I forgot a reagent and some other details. Here's the link to the source I originally came across this in:
https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/...

Also here's why I want the silver. It can evidently be pyrophoric in some situations:

Here's PoorMan'sChemist's website that he mentioned during the stream:

Also check out his channel, he's got some really cool science there:

Thank you to everyone who watched and participated in this stream. I had a lot of fun and I hope you all did as well.
