Answer:
The equations are
a) AgBr ----> Ag + Br
b) 2 Na + 2 H₂O ----> 2 NaOH + H₂
Explanation:
- Silver bromide breaks down into silver metal and bromine vapours when left in sunshine or exposed to sunlight.
- Due to the creation of silver metal, the pale yellow colour of silver bromide changes in this reaction to a greyish white.
- When exposed to light, the light-sensitive chemical silver bromide breaks down.
- The process is referred to as a photolysis reaction. Water and elementary sodium react violently.
- Caustic soda, a sodium hydroxide compound with a high alkalinity, and hydrogen gas combine to generate an odourless solution.
- This reaction is exothermic.
- When heated, sodium metal can catch fire and burn with a distinctive orange flame.
- The hydrogen gas that is generated during combustion reacts violently with the oxygen in the air.
The decomposition of silver bromide is a decomposition reaction, and the reaction of sodium and water is an exothermic reaction.
