Hard solder is around 67% silver eg. the amount of silver generally goes down as its melting temperature goes down. Soft solder is likely around 45% eg. it could vary massively from company to company and application. A recipe for hard solder is. 1/2 parts tombac brass, to 1 part pure silver. Adding 5% zinc to this, would lower its melting temperature enough to call it softer solder for aplication.

Silver solder is often used in jewellery making and repair, engineering and many electrical manufacturing processes.
What do you get when you mix silver and tin?
When you mix silver and tin, you get an alloy called silver solder. This alloy has a lower melting point than silver or tin alone, making it useful for joining metals together. Silver solder is commonly used in jewelry making and in plumbing applications.

Silver solder
What sterling silver to use for soldering jewelry?
Typically one solders sterling silver with silver solders. There is not a solder called "sterling solder." You can choose from an array of silver solders ranging from easy (extra soft) through hard. Soft solders have lower silver content and melt at a lower temperature. Hard solders have higher silver content and flow at higher temperatures. If you are doing multiple solder joints on a single piece of solder you will need to use several grades of solder. However, if you are just creating a single solder joint than it is best to use a soft or medium solder.

Why is the radio display for your 1994 Chrysler New Yorker not working everything on the radio works and lights up except for the display.?
There is a solution to the problem at www.FixYourRadio.com . It does require you to be able to solder, or find someone that can solder, or learn to solder...the directions has pictures that will lead you through the repair (you can even learn to solder to make the repair yourself). This worked on my radio which was a Chrysler Intrepid 95 with the radio with the CD.
