What is Silver Sulphate ?

Silver sulphate or also called silver sulphate. Its molecular formula is Ag2 SO4. This silver sulphate is fake and is more likely to change color if exposed to air. silver sulphate does not dissolve much in water and is slightly soluble. They are coated with silver to prevent them from dissolving in materials such as silver. Silver sulphate contains +2 cation silver ions and requires -2 anion silver ion to balance it.
