Chemical equation

Question

Write a balanced equation for the double-replacement precipitation reaction described, using the smallest possible integer coefficients.

A precipitate forms when aqueous solutions of silver(I) nitrate and aluminum chloride are combined.

Be sure to include states such as (s) or (aq).

Answer 1

Silver(I) nitrate = AgNO₃

Aluminum chloride = AlCl₃

Double replacement reaction:

3AgNO₃(aq) + AlCl₃(aq) ==> 3AgCl(s) + Al(NO₃)₃(aq) ... balanced equation
