(C) In photography,sodium thiosulphate $(Na_2S_2O_3)$ is used as a 'fixing agent'.After the development of the film,the unexposed silver bromide $(AgBr)$ remains on the film.Sodium thiosulphate reacts with this unexposed $AgBr$ to form a soluble complex,sodium dithiosulphatoargentate$(I)$,which can be washed away.The reaction is: $AgBr(s) + 2Na_2S_2O_3(aq) \rightarrow Na_3[Ag(S_2O_3)_2](aq) + NaBr(aq)$.
