Identify the chemical formula given: AgNO_3, which represents silver nitrate.
Understand that a formula unit represents the simplest ratio of ions in an ionic compound.
Recognize that in AgNO_3, the subscript '1' for Ag (silver) is implied, meaning there is one silver ion per formula unit.
Note that NO_3 is the nitrate polyatomic ion, and it does not affect the number of silver ions directly.
Conclude that there is exactly one silver ion (Ag^+) present in one formula unit of AgNO_3.
