Solution

Precipitation is the formation of a solid in a solution or inside another solid during a chemical reaction. This process usually takes place when the concentration of dissolved ions in the solution exceeds the solubility product.

$A g N O_{3} (a q) + N a C l (a q) \to A g C l (s) + N a N O_{3}$ (aq)$
