Answer
Reaction Between silver nitrate (AgNO3) and Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an example of a double displacement reaction. During the reaction, negative and positive ions trade positions as a result of the formation of white silver chloride precipitate. The chemical reaction is given below.
Ag+ + NO3– + Na+ + Cl– → AgCl + Na+ + NO3–
