Question:

what is precipitation reaction?

Answer:

The term ‘precipitation reaction’ can be defined as “ a chemical reaction occurring in an aqueous solution where two ionic bonds combine, resulting in the formation of an insoluble salt”. These insoluble salts formed in precipitation reactions are called precipitates. Precipitation reactions are usually double displacement reactions involving the production of a solid form residue called the precipitate. These reactions also occur when two or more solutions with different salts are combined, resulting in the formation of insoluble salts that precipitate out of the solution.

✞ 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.

✞ The insoluble salt that falls out of solution is known as the precipitate, hence the reaction’s name.

✞ Precipitation reactions can help determine the presence of various ions in solution.

⭐precipitation: the process of an insoluble salt forming from its aqueous ions and falling out of solution

⭐net ionic equation: a method or writing a precipitation reaction without spectator ions

$\huge{\fbox{\fbox{\color{lime}{EXAMPLE}}}}$

Aqueous silver nitrate (AgNO3) is added to a solution containing potassium chloride (KCl), and the precipitation of a white solid, silver chloride (AgCl), is observed:

AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) → AgCl (s) + KNO3(aq)

Note that the product silver chloride is the precipitate, and it is designated as a solid. This reaction can be also be written in terms of the individual dissociated ions in the combined solution. This is known as the complete ionic equation:

Ag+ (aq) + NO3−(aq) + K+ (aq) + Cl−(aq) → AgCl (s) + K+ (aq) + NO3−(aq)
