Describe what happens when the ag+ combined with na2co3. what does this indicate?

When Agreacts with sodium carbonate, , a white precipitate forms. The reaction between Agand sodium carbonate, cna be represented as:

So when an aqueous solution containing silver ions is mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate, a white precipitate of silver carbonate is formed. This indicates that the reaction would be a precipitation reaction as the carbonate of silver is insoluble in water.

We have in an aqueous state

is a salt therefore being in an aqueous state will ionize

It will separate into the two ions that compose it.

When adding silver ions in an aqueous state a simple displacement reaction will occur

In a simple displacement reaction, an element reacts with a compound and takes the place of one of the elements of the compound, producing a different element and also a different compound.

General equation of a simple displacement reaction

In this case, silver displaces sodium because it is a more reactive metal.

After the reaction occurs, a precipitate of calcium carbonate is observed since this new compound is insoluble in water.
