The molar mass of silver nitrate is 169.87 g/mol. Thus, to find the amount of silver nitrate needed to yield 1.00 g of silver, we need to work backwards using the molar ratio of silver to silver nitrate. 
1.00 g Ag x (1 mol Ag/107.87 g Ag) x (1 mol AgNO3/1 mol Ag) x (169.87 g AgNO3/1 mol AgNO3) = 1.57 g AgNO3 
Therefore, the answer is B, 1.57 g silver nitrate.
