A white insoluble solid forms when aqueous sodium chloride reacts with aqueous silver nitrate. This reaction is an example of
Aprecipitation in a double displacement reaction
Bdecomposition by heat
Csingle displacement by a metal
Doxidation by addition of oxygen
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. precipitation in a double displacement reaction
In $\mathrm{NaCl(aq) + AgNO_3(aq) \rightarrow NaNO_3(aq) + AgCl(s)}$, the ions exchange partners and insoluble white silver chloride forms. That makes it a double displacement reaction of the precipitation type.
