A sealed flask of a clear, colorless liquid is left sitting on an interior sunny windowsill. After about an hour, there are droplets of a clear liquid on the glass above the solution, which has turned yellow. After two hours, the solution is dark brown with clear, colorless droplets of liquid on the glass. After sitting on the windowsill for a week, the walls of the flask have a silvery lining and both the solution and the droplets are clear and colorless. Your friend claims that there is a chemical reaction happening in the sealed flask. Explain how you can prove this claim.

I need a claim, reason, and evidence.
