Question

Explain precipitation reaction with examples

Answer 1

Answer:

A precipitation reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which two soluble salts in aqueous solution combine and one of the products is an insoluble salt called a precipitate. ... Note that not all ionic compounds react to form precipitates.

The reaction between silver nitrate (AgNO3) and sodium chloride (NaCl), results in the formation of silver chloride (AgCl) that is an insoluble salt.

Answer 2

Answer:

if two aqueous solution react to form one insoluble compound and one soluble compound then it is called precipitation reaction. because the insoluble compound formed as one of the product is a precipitate and hence it is so called.
