    On reacting zinc chloride with silver nitrate, solution turns milky white.

    Reason:

    Following reaction occurs in present system:

    ZnCl2 (aq) + 2AgNO3 (aq) → Zn (NO3) 2 + 2AgCl↓

    (white ppt.)

    The solubility of AgCl in water is extremely poor. Infact, it is a sparingly soluble salt. Hence, it will get precipitate out. Colour of AgCl is white, hence the solution appears to be milky white.
