Abstract This article describes the dissolution kinetics of metallic silver (Ag) in ammonium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) solution. The influences of temperature, rotation speed, H 2 O 2 concentration, and ammonium carbonate concentration were investigated. The results indicate that ammonium carbonate concentrations between 0.025 and 0.1 M have a significant impact on the dissolution rate. The dissolution rate is positively impacted by H 2 O 2 concentrations between 0.025 M and 0.10 M. Furthermore, there is a positive relationship between the dissolution rate of Ag and the rotation speed. Silver dissolves more readily at temperatures between 20°C and 55°C. However, a temperature > 40°C led to the formation of a silver carbonate layer on the disc when using high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and ammonium carbonate. The activation energy of 11.10 kJ/mol was calculated, supporting the validity of the Levich equation, which is predicated on the suggestion that mass transfer control describes the extraction rate.
