Jose and Sue were investigating the formation of precipitates in chemistry lab. They mixed a silver nitrate solution with a sodium chloride solution and immediately a white solid appeared in the bottom of the test tube. This white solid is a
precipitate of silver chloride. The reaction is represented with the equation:
AgNO3(aq) + NaCl (aq) - AgCl (s) + NaNO3(aq)
The equation represents a
reaction.
A)
synthesis
B)
decomposition
neutralization
D)
double replacement
