    Silver is a pure element found in the earth's crust. Its symbol on the periodic table of the elements is Ag. Its atomic number is 47, meaning it has 47 protons and 47 electrons. Silver is a shiny metallic solid at room temperature of 298 degrees Kelvin, or 77 degrees Fahrenheit.

    • I thought room temperature was 72 degrees.

      Or was that before Global Warming?

    • The highest grade of Sterling silver available still has a half percent of other metals and hence is not a pure metal.
