Question

what is precipitation reaction? Name its compounds.

Answer 1

Precipitation Reactions. A precipitate is a solid that forms out of solution. A common example is that of the mixing of two clear solutions: (1) silver nitrate (AgNO3) and (2) sodium chloride (NaCl): The reaction is. Theprecipitate forms because the solid (AgCl) is insoluble in water.

Answer 2

A precipitation reaction refers to the formation of an insoluble salt when two solutions containing soluble salts are combined. The insoluble salt that falls out of solution is known as the precipitation reaction .

AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq) ---- AgCl(precipitate) + KNO3(aq)
