Question

what happens when silver nitrate solution is added to silver chloride solution

a) write the equation for the reaction which takes place

b) Name the type of reaction invlove​

Answer 1

When silver nitrate solution is added to sodium chloride solution, then a white precipitate of silver chloride is formed along with sodium nitrate solution.

a) AgNO3(aq)+NaCl(aq)→AgCl(s)+NaNO3(aq)

b) Double displacement reaction

Answer 2

• When silver nitrate solution is added to silver chloride solution the following reaction takes place :-

AgNO3 + NaCl ⸻➤AgCl + NaNO3.

here ,

[ AgNO3 - Silver nitrate ]

[ NaCl - Sodium Chloride ]

[ AgCl - Silver chloride ]

[ NaNO3- Sodium nitrate ]

• The reaction is double displacement reaction.
