Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When copper chloride(cucl2) is added to silver nitrate (Agno3) a white curdy precipitate of silver chloride (Agcl) is formed. These type of reactions are known as Precipitation Reactions.
Detailed explanation-2: -A solution of common salt when added to silver nitrate solution yields a precipitate of silver chloride(0.28 g).
Detailed explanation-3: -A solution of silver nitrate is combined with a solution of sodium chloride. The resulting solution contains Na+, Ag+, Cl-, and NO3-, but AgCl is not soluble in water. Since Ag+ is now in solution with Cl-the two will combine to form AgCl, and the AgCl will precipitate from solution.
