2g of silver chloride is taken in a china dish and the china dish is placed in sunlight for sometime. What will be your observation in this case? Write the chemical reaction involved in the form of a balanced chemical equation. Identify the type of chemical reaction.
Silver chloride will change into slightly grey or ***** colour. It is a photo chemical decomposition in which AgCl2 is decomposed into Ag and Cl2 by sunlight.
2AgCl() → 2Ag() + Cl2(g)
Photo chemical decomposition
