What is the balanced chemical equation for developing photographic films?
  1. 2AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na2[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
  2. 2AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na3[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
  3. AgBr+Na2S2O3Na[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
  4. AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr

A
AgBr+Na2S2O3Na[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
B
AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
C
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na2[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
D
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na3[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
Solution
Verified by Toppr

AgBr react with sodium thiosulphate (hypo) to give soluble sodium argentothiosulphate.

AgBr+2Na2S2O3Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr

The light sensitized photographic film is treated with hydroquinone which is a very mild reducing agent. It does not affect the unexposed silver bromide.
