    We know that a double replacement will occur when you combine the two:

    AgNO3 + NaSO4 = AgSO4 (Silver Sulfate) + NaNO3 (Sodium Nitrate)

    The solubility rules state that:

    1) All nitrates are soluble

    2) Sulfates are soluble except for Pb, Ag, Hg+, Ca, Sr, Ba

    So [Silver Sulfate] will produce a precipitate.

    The Net Ionic equation is this:

    Ag (+) + SO4 (2-) = AgSO4 (+)
