Question : Why do we store silver chloride in dark colored bottles? Explain in brief.
Answer : Silver chloride on exposure to sunlight may decompose as per the following reaction
2AgCL → 2Ag + Cl2
Therefore it is stored in dark colored bottles.
Question : (i) Account for the following :
(a) White silver chloride turns grey in sunlight.
(b) Brown coloured copper powder on heating in air turns into black coloured substance.
(ii) What do you mean by
(a) Displacement reaction
(b) Reduction reaction
(c) Combination reaction?
Write balanced chemical equation in support for all
Answer:
(i) (a) White coloured silver chloride undergoes decomposition in the presence of sunlight and forms silver (grey in colour) and chlorine.
(b) Brown coloured copper powder on heating in air gets oxidised to copper oxide which is black in colour.
(ii) For the different types of reactions,
(a) In a displacement reaction, one element takes the place of another in a compound dissolved in a solution. For example,
Fe(s) + CuSO4 (aq) ———> FeSO4 (aq) + Cu(s)
(b) Combination reaction may be defined as the reaction in which two or more substances combine under suitable conditions to form a new substance. For example,
(c) A decomposition reaction may be defined as the reaction in which a single substance decomposes or splits into two or more substances under suitable conditions.
For example,
It may be concluded that a certain substance is formed or synthesised in combination reaction and it breaks or splits in decomposition reaction. Therefore, the two reactions oppose each other.
(i) Reaction of water with quick lime
(ii) Dilution of an acid
