Solubility of the silver halides decreases down the group.
The solubilities of silver halides decreases down the Periodic Table:
- AgF :Ksp=205
- AgCl:Ksp=1.8×10−10
- AgBr:Ksp=5.2×10−13
- AgI :Ksp=8.3×10−17

When photographic film is exposed to light the salt on the film breaks down what metal is formed?
The "salt" you are referring to is actually called silver-halide and are more commonly known as "silver salts". When silver-halide crystals are exposed to light, they form a compound known as "metallic silver"
What effect does silver nitrate solution have upon each of the halide salt solutions?
The product is a silver halide insoluble in water.
What is the most photosensitive silver halide?
I think it would be bromide(Silver Bromide) because Silver Bromide was used in films for cameras before they all became digital cameras.
Is AgI soluble?
No, most silver halides are insoluble.
What are silver halide salts made of?
Silver halides contain the metal (Ag, silver) and a halogen: F, Cl, I, Br.
Why is silver nitrate added to halide salts?
To form an insoluble silver halide.
What part of the silver halide crystal is most affected by light when film is exposed?
The part of the silver halide crystal that is most affected by light when film is exposed is the surface. More specifically, any sensitivity specks that can become metallic silver.
Is silver nitrate soluble or insoluble?
Silver nitrate is the most soluble in water of all common silver salts and is generally considered soluble, although it does have a saturation limit.

What effect does silver nitrate solution have upon each of the halide salt solutions?
The product is a silver halide insoluble in water.
Is sodium iodide water soluble?
Yes. Simple alkali metal salts tend to be soluble with extremely few exceptions; most halides are likewise soluble. An alkali metal halide, such as sodium iodide, should be expected to be extremely soluble in water.
The larger the silver halide crystals in the film's emulsion?
The larger the silver halide crystals are, the higher the films speed rating will be. The film will also be easier to overexpose.
What is the most photosensitive silver halide?
I think it would be bromide(Silver Bromide) because Silver Bromide was used in films for cameras before they all became digital cameras.
What does silver nitrate detect?
The presence of halide ions
What is a compound used in photography which darkens when exposed to light?
Silver Halide Silver iodide
The salts of which metal are used in photographic emulsions?
Silver salts (AgCl)
How many soluble chlorides are there?
Most metal chlorides are soluble. The exceptions include lead chloride and silver chloride.
