So the rich silver veins in Montana formed when water stuffed And this is purely my preference because that's how my teacher said it when I was being taught. When we talk about an ionic compound that's fallen out of solution, I say precipitate to distinguish it from precipitate which is more the verby sound. Yes, precipitate isīoth a noun and a verb. Reactions and solution, they fall out as a solid precipitate. But some ionic compounds can overcome even theĭissolving power of water. Those little polar molecules slide their way between the ions dissolving massive amounts A positively charged ionĪnd a negatively charged ion held together by their charges might form a crystal when they're dry but add a bit of water and Water, as we've discussed here before, is pretty dang good at dissolving stuff. And for us here, it allĬomes down to a little thing called solubility. (upbeat music) Precipitation: it's stuffįalling out of other stuff. I can do it right here on this desk and all I need to get started is this. Of millions years ago, they're also the key to To how silver was deposited in these mountains hundreds Happen to be one of the best ways to produce chemicals Our waste water drinkable and they've been used byįolks for thousands of years to get rich, because precipitation reactions What create geological deposits in the earth as well as Took place over the eons called precipitation reactions. Specifically, it's hereīecause of countless chemical reactions that And of course, all that silver got hereīecause of chemistry. Silver was also a bigĭriver of the settlement in the western United Purity and warding off evil whether in the form of Shiny electrically conductive,Īnd oh so useful, silver has been valued since ancient times and has a reputation for Nitrate on that big boy and you'll be ready for Or perhaps you're in the bath one day and as you reach for the soap you notice a wart on your big toe.

Fortunately, the cutlery is made of silver and you know how to use it. Some barbecued beef cheeks, you look outside to admire the full moon but when you glance back you realize that your friend has
