Silver chloride turns grey in sunlight because of decomposition reaction.
this decomposition reaction is called photoletic decomposition.
2AgCl gives Ag + Cl2
(silver (silver) (chloride)
chloride)
The colour will change into grey.
It turns grey in colour i.e., 2AgCl ------> 2Ag+Cl2
Bluish-gray, usually. Sometimes white if fully oxidized.
Silver(I) chloride, although it is typically just called silver chloride, because +1 is silver's only valence state.
Silver chloride is easily synthesized by combining aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride.
Silver chloride turns grey due to decomposition reaction. This decomposition reaction is called photoletic decomposition. 2AgCl gives Ag + Cl2 (silver (silver) (chloride) Chloride)
The colour will change into grey.
This is a photochemical reaction of decomposition: silver (black) is released.
It turns grey in colour i.e., 2AgCl ------> 2Ag+Cl2
Bluish-gray, usually. Sometimes white if fully oxidized.
The correct name for AgCl is silver chloride. Its IUPAC name is chlorosilver. Other names for silver chloride are cerargyrite, chlorargyrite, and horn silver.
Silver(I) chloride, although it is typically just called silver chloride, because +1 is silver's only valence state.
Silver chloride is easily synthesized by combining aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride.
Silver chloride is insoluble.
No. Silver chloride is actually an oxidizer.
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.
Silver chloride is not soluble in water.
