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.

What is silver bromide used for?

What is silver bromide?
Silver Bromide is AgBr. It is the salt produced from silver and bromine.
Which elements are joined up in silver bromide?
The elements present in silver bromide are silver and bromine.
Why silver bromide is stored in color bottles?
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.
How do you test for bromide ions?
Add silver nitrate solution to a solution of bromide ions. A pale yellow precipitate of silver bromide formed indicates the presence of bromide ions.
Is silver bromide used in photography?

Which halogen compound is used in photography?
silver bromide
What are photography salts?
Examples: silver choride, bromide and iodide.
Why the most halide used in photography is silver bromide instead of other halides?
There are three silver halides used: silver bromide, silver chloride and silver iodide. Silver chloride doesn't absorb very much light and silver iodide is hard to develop. So they use silver bromide, with a little bit of the other two to make the emulsion work in ways silver bromide can't do alone.
What is chemical compound used in photography?
ZnBr.....Zinc Bromide
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 is the name of the compound used to take black and white photos?
actually not silver chloride but silver bromide AgBr is used in black and white photography as a soft, pale yellow, insoluble salt well known (along with other silver halides for its unusual sensitivity to light. This property has allowed silver halides to become the basis of modern photographic materials. AgBr is widely used in black and white photography film The classic black and white film would be made using silver bromide which is made from silver nitrate. Silver nitrate is a chemical compound with chemical formula AgNO3. This nitrate of silver is not the light sensitive ingredient in photographic film .
What is the use of silver salts in photography?
The silver bromide on a photographic plate plays very important role theimpression of an object which have been catch ed by camera is made by reduction of silver ion into silver metal other detailed may be study by any book written on photography.
