What do you mean by precipitation reaction? Explain giving examples.

1 Answer

In a precipitation reaction, one of the products formed during the reaction does not dissolve in solution and gets settled on the surface of the container (beaker or tube). It is known as a precipitate.

Examples:

AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ➝ AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

BaCl2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) ➝ BaSO4(s) + 2NaCl(aq)
