What is the balanced chemical equation for developing photographic films?
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na2[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na3[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
AgBr+Na2S2O3→Na[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
A
AgBr+Na2S2O3→Na[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
B
AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]+NaBr
C
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na2[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr
D
2AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na3[Ag2(S2O3)2]+2NaBr

AgBr react with sodium thiosulphate (hypo) to give soluble sodium argentothiosulphate.
AgBr+2Na2S2O3→Na3[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.
