An insoluble solid formed in a chemical reaction is a
A
vapor
B
plasma
C
precipitate
D
filtrate
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A precipitate is a solid formed in a chemical reaction that is different from either of the reactants. This can occur when solutions containing ionic compounds are mixed and an insoluble product is formed. The identity of the precipitate can often be determined by examining solubility rules.

Detailed explanation-2: -Precipitates are insoluble ionic solid products of a reaction, formed when certain cations and anions combine in an aqueous solution. The determining factors of the formation of a precipitate can vary.

Detailed explanation-3: -A precipitate will form if the resulting compound is insoluble in water. For example, a silver nitrate solution (AgNO3) is mixed with a solution of magnesium bromide (MgBr2).

Detailed explanation-4: -These insoluble salts formed in precipitation reactions are called precipitates. Precipitation reactions are usually double displacement reactions involving the production of a solid form residue called the precipitate.

Detailed explanation-5: -The insoluble substance formed during a chemical reaction is known as a precipitate.
