Everything Matters - Tales From The Periodic Table: Silver

Tune in at 7pm on June 17th
Known since before written records, Silver is an element that has found multiple uses. Jewelry, cutlery and coinage are obvious. Less well known are it’s uses in batteries, mirrors, and antibacterial bandages. It’s the best electrical and thermal conductor of all the elements and has many applications because of these qualities. Without Silver there would have been no film-based photography. Come and explore all these and more with the Exploratorium's Everything Matters - Tales From the Periodic Table: Silver, with your host, Ron Hipschman.

I enjoy your presentation. Maybe keep tinfoil hat comments quiet until you learn more about grounding & faraday cages. This is a great series!! Thank you for your content.

Silver eyedrops have also been historically used for their antimicrobial properties. Over-use of these drops can cause silver deposits in skin and the tissues of the eyes giving a slate-grey appearance to some people's eyes. Googling can find pictures of this.
