Quote from:
Bromine in water stay in an equilibrium what is almost on left side.

Br2 + H2O => HBr + HOBr

If you add silver ion you will shift it more to the right side.

AgBr will precipitate.

Thanks! I read that HOBr is very unstable in water at temperatures above 0 °C, it will disproportionate to bromate and bromide, so the products at normal conditions would likely be:
Br2+AgNO3+H2:rarrow: AgBr :spindown: + HBrO3 + HNO3
