By using green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles is doped with silver nanoparticles, whether the particle size is decreased or increased. If increased or decreased why?
I synthesized silver doped zinc oxide nanoparticles and the size decreased

If you tell me how you have doped zinc oxide with Ag NPs, I may be able to help.

If after analysis you get the formula AgZnO, then the size of the old nanoparticle will increase. If you get the formula 0.7 Ag 0.3 ZnO, the size of the nanoparticle will decrease. In order to calculate why this happens, compare the volumes of 1 g of your nanoparticles, calculating them according to the formulas and densities of substances.
