Question

AgNO3 (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaNO3 (aq) + AGOH (s) silver nitrate + sodium hydroxide → sodium nitrate + silver hydroxide

Identify the precipitate and explain why it forms.​

Answer 1

silver hydroxide is the precipitate formed

Step-by-step explanation:

silver hydroxide is the insoluble product formed. A precipitate is formed when two aqueous solutions react together . They undergo double displacement reaction in which exchange of ions occurs. And hence an insoluble product is formed . Double displacement reaction is also known as precipitation reaction .
