Description

Silver bromide, AgBr, is pale yellow crystals or powder, that darken on exposure to light, finally turning black and soluble in potassium bromide, potassium cyanide, and sodium thiosulfate solutions, only very slightly soluble in ammonia water, insoluble in water, and light sensitive. Derivation is through silver nitrate dissolving in water and a solution ofalkali bromide added slowly. The precipitated silver bromide is washed repeatedly with hotwater. The operation must be carried on in a dark
