Question

Solution of silver nitrate and hydrogen peroxide are kept in dark coloured bottles. Which type of reaction occurs when they are kept in colourless bottles?​

Answer 1

Answer:

When direct light falls on it, its color will change to brown or black. Dark color (Brown color) bottles prevent the passage of light and therefore it prevents the decomposition process. Light break downs the silver nitrate into silver. This is why silver nitrate is stored in brown bottles.

Hope it helps you dude!!!

Answer 2

Solutions of silver nitrate and hydrogen peroxide are kept in dark coloured bottles to prevent them from decomposition.

- Silver nitrate decomposes on reacting with light into silver.

- Hydrogen peroxide reacts with light and decomposes to form water.

- So, they are kept in dark coloured bottles to prevent them from reacting with light.

- If they are kept in colourless bottles, they will undergo decomposition reaction.
