Silver bromide reacts to light (the halide salts of silver are used in photographic emulsions) the colored bottles stop the light getting to the chemical and spoiling it.

Why is silver bromide used in photography?

1) it reacts to light (by the intermediate of a photochemical reaction AgBr is decomposed in Ag and Br).2) unchanged it can be washed away.thus leaving a "photographic" image.Visible light decompose (a photochemical reaction) silver bromide; silver the black color on the phodos.Because it is the easiest-manipulated compound that is most affected by exposure to light.

Why are silver compounds used in photography?

Silver is used in film media because it tarnishes better than other materials.Tarnish is the process of oxidation, where a metal turns from some some shiny color to a darker non-shiny color.Three Examples of Tarnish:Gold: Starts a bright shiny gold color and tarnishes to a slightly darker dull gold colorCopper: Starts a bright shiny orange-gold color and tarnishes to a green patina colorSilver: Starts a bright almost white color and tarnishes to a very dark grey, almost black colorSilver provides the best tonal range, from light to dark. It can capture light from pure white to pure black (or very close).Additionally, silver tarnishes very consistently. This provides a smooth transition from light to dark on film.
