Identify the precipitate(s) of the reaction that occurs when a silver nitrate solution is mixed with a sodium chloride solution.

Check all that apply.

silver nitrate
sodium chloride
sodium nitrate
silver chloride

You need to look up the solubility of each of the compounds. That will give you the answer since one of them is essentially insoluble.

Thanks DrBob222 I got it!

When a silver nitrate solution is mixed with a sodium chloride solution, the following reaction occurs:

AgNO3 (silver nitrate) + NaCl (sodium chloride) → AgCl (silver chloride) + NaNO3 (sodium nitrate)

The precipitate formed in this reaction is silver chloride.

To identify the precipitate(s) formed when a silver nitrate solution is mixed with a sodium chloride solution, you need to consider the possible reactions that can occur.

When silver nitrate (AgNO3) reacts with sodium chloride (NaCl), a double replacement reaction takes place. The silver ions (Ag+) from silver nitrate combine with the chloride ions (Cl-) from sodium chloride to produce silver chloride (AgCl). The remaining ions, sodium ions (Na+) and nitrate ions (NO3-), remain in solution.

So, the precipitate(s) formed in this reaction are silver chloride (AgCl).

To summarize, the precipitate(s) formed when a silver nitrate solution is mixed with a sodium chloride solution are silver chloride (AgCl).
