Correct option is

A

Precipitation reaction

B

Double displacement reaction

Balanced equation for the reaction is:

KCl(s)+AgNO3(aq)→AgCl(s)+KNO3(aq)

It is a double displacement reaction as both reactants exchange ions to form new products. Also, it is a precipitation reaction as white precipitates of silver chloride(AgCl) are formed.
