Question

1) Write a balanced equation for decomposition of silver chloride
2) Where is this reaction used.
3) State the colour change observed.​

Answer 1

Answer:

When silver chloride(AgCl) is exposed to sunlight it get decomposed into silver and chlorine itself. This type of decomposition caused by the sunlight is called photolytic decomposition. 2AgCl ----------------- 2Ag +Cl2.

This is called as Photo decomposition Reaction
