Silver • Silver is a metallic chemical element with the chemical symbol Ag • it has the highest electrical conductivity of any element and the highest thermalconductivity of any metal
Occurrence the Silver Element • Silver ore is found in native form. • The other principal sources of silver are copper, copper-nickel, gold, lead and lead-zinc ores. • Found in Canada, Mexico, Peru, Australia and the USA.

Physical properties • Silver is soft • white metal with a shiny surface • It is the most ductile and most malleable metal • It conducts heat and electricity better than any other element • It also reflects light very well.
Chemical properties • Silver is a very inactive metal. • It does not react with oxygen in the air • It does react slowly with sulfur compounds in the air
The uses of Silver • Silver was one of the earliest metals used to make coins
The uses of Silver • Because silver is such a good conductor of electricity, it is used in many electrical applications such as switches, contacts and fuses
The uses of Silver • About 14 percent of silver in the world is used in jewelry and silverware
Silver's important role in film • Photographic film is coated with a thin layer of silver chloride, silver bromide, or silver iodide • 44% of Silver world’s usage use in photo graphics film and paper
