Silver sulfite is the chemical compound with the formula Ag₂SO₃. This unstable silver compound when heated and/or in light it decomposes to silver dithionate and silver sulfate.[4]

Preparation

Silver sulfite can be prepared by dissolving silver nitrate with the stoichiometric quantity of sodium sulfite solution, yielding a precipitation of silver sulfite by the following reaction:

2 AgNO₃ + Na₂SO₃ ⇌ Ag₂SO₃ + 2 NaNO₃

After precipitation then filtering silver sulfite, washing it using well-boiled water, and drying it in vacuum.[4]

gollark: C is actually bad, though.

gollark: I mean, it could plausibly say "[deleted] bee message bee message", it just doesn't.

gollark: As firecubez said, no, how would that work.

gollark: Minoteaur 8.

gollark: It could apify the circadian rhythm circuitry without actually making you feel awake etc. directly.
