when sodium chloride solution is mixed with silver nitrate.a white pricipitate of silver chloride and sodium nitrate solution are form
Answers
When a solution of silver nitrate is added to a solution of sodium chloride, the silver ions combine with the chloride ions to form a precipitate of silver chloride. The sodium and the nitrate ions are nonparticipating spectator ions.
Answer:
Explanation:
When silver nitrate (AgNO
3
) reacts with sodium chloride (NaCl) a white precipitate of silver chloride (AgCl) is formed which is highly insoluble in water, along with formation of sodium nitrate (NaNO
3
).
Since (AgCl) is insoluble in water it will precipitate out and (NaNO
3
) is soluble in water so it will remain dissolved in the mixture. This reaction is an example of double displacement reaction and it occurs as follows:-
AgNO
3
+ NaCl→AgCl + NaNO
