Does silver have a reaction?
Yes - silver does react and that is why there are quite a few compounds of silver. It is used in photography for example.
what is the role of silver chloride and silver bromide in black and white photography?
On exposure to light both compounds forms silver metal in very finely divided state. Inside a camera the bright areas of the image projected onto a photgraphic plate or film are exposed more and therefore more silver gets deposited. This produces a "negative" of the image which is then used to produce the photograph.
What element has an atomic number of forty-seven and is used photograph film?
Silver (Ag) has an atomic number of 47 and is used in photography.
What metal is used in making photographs?
Silver chloride, bromide or iodide (photosensitive compounds)
What is silveroxide?
Silver oxide is a chemical compound. It is used to prepare other silver compounds. Source: Wikipedia. The link below has more information on Silver Oxide.
What is the molecular formula for silver nitrate?
The molecular formula for silver nitrate is AgNO3.This white solid is often used as a precursor to many other silver compounds.
What is a word that means you like a photograph in its detail?
photograthic
What are important uses of silver?
Silver has long been valued as a precious metal, and it is used to make ornaments, jewelry, high-value tableware, utensils , and currency coins. Today, silver metal is also used in electrical contacts and conductors, in mirrors and in catalysis of chemical reactions. Its compounds are used in photographic film and dilute silver nitrate solutions and other silver compounds are used as disinfectants and microbiocides. While many medical antimicrobial uses of silver have been supplanted by antibiotics, further research into clinical potential continues.
What industries use cyanide compounds?
The main uses are the gold and silver extraction; also as precursor of nylon.
What covalent bonds used to form?
It is used to form molecules and various compounds. In fact, most of the bonds are covalent bonds.
What are covalent bonds used to form?
It is used to form molecules and various compounds. In fact, most of the bonds are covalent bonds.
What property of ionic compounds explains why silver halides can be used in photography?
Silver halides absorb light to form elemental silver. This is the basis for the photographic film. This is an unusual reaction and is certainly not common to all ionic compounds. Silver halides are also unusually insoluble, again not a common property of ionic compounds. In fact silver halides have quite a lot of covalent character! I am sure teacher has something in mind but its certainly not in mine.
