Chemistry / What is the stability of silver bromide?
« on: 29/07/2022 15:42:41 »
Hi all. I am in need of help to figure out the stability of Silver Bromide. I am carrying out a precipitation reaction using liquid bromine to remove as much soluble silver from water as possible. What I can't figure out is how stable this compound is in regular light and sun light. From what I have read, silver halide compounds (like silver bromide) breakdown in sunlight to potentially produce bromine gas but I don't know to what extent. Bromine gas is a health hazard and therefore I would like to avoid it if thats whats produced.
Any help is much appreciated.
