Answer: The correct answer option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When calcium bromide is added to the silver nitrate precipitates of silver bromides are formed which is pale yellow in color.

The chemical reaction is given by:


2AgNO_3+CaBr_2\rightarrow 2AgBr+Ca(NO_3)_2

Hence, the correct answer is option C.
