What are some other reactions that depend on light?

Some reactions that depends upon light are:Silver chloride turns grey in sunlight .This is due to the decomposition of silver chloride into silver and chloride by light.Silver bromide also decomposes like silver chloride.These reactions are generally called photo decomposition reaction .These reactions are also use in black & white photography.


If silver chloride undergoes extensive photodecomposition before you weigh it will your results be high or low?

Photodecomposition is any photochemical reaction that results in the decomposition of a substance. Therefore, if silver chloride undergoes extensive photodecomposition, weighing it will produce low results.


What sign of a chemical reaction does sodium chloride have?

For example the product of the reaction between sodium chloride and silver nitrate is the insoluble silver chloride.


Is silver nitrate and sodium chloride a decomposition reaction?

No it is actually a double replacement reaction with silver and sodium switching places. the balanced equation would be as follows; Ag(NO3)2 (aq) + 2NaCl (aq) ------> 2NaNO3 (aq) + AgCl2 (aq)

Is the reaction of silver nitrate solution with hydrochloric acid is an acid and base reaction?

simply : 'no'. The classic reaction is 'acid + base = salt + water'. The reaction here is that of silver ion with the chloride ion in the acid. A white precipitate of insoluble silver chloride forms. This reaction is that used for testing for chloride ions.
