Bc I got it right?

Answer 2

B Aqueous

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation;

KBr (aq) + AgNO₃ (aq) → KNO₃ (aq) + AgBr (s)

• The equation shows a precipitation reaction or a double displacement reaction.
• Precipitation reaction because two soluble salts reacts to produce a precipitate as one of the product.
• Double displacement reaction because the salts exchange cations and anions to form new compounds
• In the equation;
• KBr is in aqueous state since all salts of potassium (K) are soluble in water.
• KNO₃ and AgNO₃ are also in aqueous state as all nitrates are soluble in water.
• AgBr on the other hand is in solid state since its a precipitate that is insoluble in water.
