Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When solutions of NaCl and AgNO₃ are mixed, a reaction takes place between the ions in the solution, resulting in the formation of a solid precipitate known as silver chloride (AgCl). This can be represented by the following chemical equation: NaCl + AgNO₃ → AgCl + NaNO₃. Therefore, the correct choice is A.
