Understand that the problem is asking for the chemical symbol of silver on the periodic table.
Recall that each element on the periodic table is represented by a unique one- or two-letter chemical symbol, usually derived from its English or Latin name.
Recognize that 'Au' is the symbol for gold, 'Si' is the symbol for silicon, and 'S' is the symbol for sulfur.
Know that the chemical symbol for silver is derived from its Latin name 'Argentum', which is 'Ag'.
Therefore, identify that the correct chemical symbol for silver is \(\mathrm{Ag}\).
