Ca(NO3)2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) → 2NaNO3 + CaCO3⬇. NaNO3 is solution so CaCO3 is the precipitate formed.

Answer:The precipitate formed is calcium carbonate.

Step-by-step explanation:

double replacement reaction is the chemical reaction in which two reactant exchanges their respective ions to give new substance as a product.

AB+CD→CB+AD

In a given reaction:


Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+Na_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+CaCO_3(ppt)

When calcium nitrate reacts with sodium carbonate in aqueous they give white colored precipitate of calcium sulfate and aqueous solution of sodium nitrate.
