Silver nitrate is very conductive and water soluble.
Is "silver nitrate" like colloidal silver ? I have used colloidal silver & it works great. But it's kind of pricey. I am going to try colloidal copper.
Tried this like how? I own a colloidal generator so it is cheap for me to make. Are you consuming this yourself internally or since this is a HHO forum are you asking to try silver nitrate as a catalyst in your HHO generator? It is very easy to make one's own colloidal silver generator, there are several sites on the internet that shows how.Quote:

Silver nitrate is also the go-to to precipitate something since it's an unreactive metal with a highly reactive negative ion, so if you put silver nitrate in your tap water you'll probably for all sorts of nice insoluble silver compounds.Quote:

I do not recommend using silver nitrate as an electrolyte.
