Answer:
When an aqueous solution of potassium chloride(KCl) when mixed with silver nitrate(AgNO3) solution an insoluble white substance formed is silver chloride(AgCl). The chemical reaction are as follows : KCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → KNO3(aq) + AgCl (s). It is an example of double displacement reaction

Answer:
Explanation
Balanced equation for the reaction is:
KCl(s)+AgNO
3
(aq)→AgCl(s)+KNO
3
(aq)
It is a double displacement reaction as both reactants exchange ions to form new products. Also, it is a precipitation reaction as white precipitates of silver chloride(AgCl) are formed.
