In the following chemical reaction, which compound is a precipitate? NaCl (aq) + AgNO3 (aq) ⟶ NaNO3 (aq) + AgCl (s) NaCl AgNO3 NaNO3 AgCl

Answer: AgCl

Explanation:

When the reaction takes place in which the sodium chloride is reacted with silver nitrate then the products formed are sodium nitrate and silver chloride.

NaCl (aq) + AgNO3 (aq) ⟶ NaNO3 (aq) + AgCl (s)

This reaction is known as precipitation reaction in which the white precipitate of silver chloride is formed.

This precipitate is insoluble and separates out of the solution.

So, the correction answer is AgCl (silver chloride).
