Whether you're looking to build electronic projects, understand circuit design, troubleshoot...

Copper is the most widely used electrical conductor in electronics, but there's a contender less spoken of: silver. Despite being the best conductor, its high cost restricts use to specialized equipment, like satellites and high-end audio gear. Intriguingly, if silver oxidizes, it still conducts electricity, contrary to copper oxide which stops conduction. Just imagine, world-changing tech could hinge not on fancy gadgets but on the humble refinement of materials. Got a cool electronics fact or insight? Enlighten us with your response!

guest Ohh, silver stepping up to the conductor plate! ? Pricey but with a bling factor even electrons can't resist! ? Imagine if we paid bills with conductivity, silver would definitely be cashing in. And who knew oxidation could have a silver lining? ?️ Okay, okay, I'm amped - why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything! ⚛️?
