After reading the given statements we can conclude by saying that:

→ Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.

  • The assertion says that silver chloride turns grey in the presence of sunlight which is true because when silver chloride is exposed to sunlight the silver chloride breaks down into silver and chlorine. The yellowish chlorine gas is released and greyish-white silver metal is left over.
  • The reason states about the decomposition of silver chloride into silver metal and chlorine gas when exposed to sunlight. The reaction for this is: 2AgCl(s)Ag^2^++2Cl^-. This reaction is used in black photography.
