The reaction you describe in words is:
KCl + AgCH3CO2 → AgCl + KCH3CO2
This type of reaction is known as a "double replacement reaction" aka "double displacement reaction" aka "metathesis reaction." A double replacement reaction is a chemical reaction where two reactant ionic compounds exchange ions to form two new products compounds with the same ions.
