White lustrousFace centered cubic structureThe metal of is soft and its ductility is second only to that of gold. It is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity;It does not react with water and oxygen in the atmosphere, and turns black when encountering ozone, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur;It is inert to most acids and can quickly dissolve in dilute nitric acid and hot concentrated sulfuric acid. Hydrochloric acid can corrode its surface and dissolve in molten alkali hydroxide, alkali peroxide and alkali cyanide in the presence of air or oxygen;Most silver salts are light sensitive and insoluble in many acids.
