Abstract As an important property demonstration experiment of aldehyde group in senior high school chemistry teaching, silver mirror reaction usually required water bath heating, and it took a long time to form silver mirror. In this paper, on the basis of a series of experimental exploration, it was found that a certain amount of sodium carbonate solution was added to the silver ammonia solution, and then acetaldehyde was added, silver mirror could be generated in a short time at room temperature. The reaction was simple to operate, and the silver mirror formed relatively quickly.
