Answer:

SrCO₃ will precipitate in the reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

Na₂CO₃ + SrCl₂ → 2 NaCl + SrCO₃ ↓

CO₃⁻² reacts with all the elements of group 2 of periodic table, to make an insoluble solid.

NaCl is a ionic salt, which is extremely soluble.

To solve this, you have to analyse all the reactions of cations and anions, with the qualitative inorganic analysis.
