Solution

Sodium chloride solution Sodium nitrate solution
When sodium chloride solution is treated with Silver nitrate solution, a white precipitate is formed which is soluble in excess of Ammonium hydroxide. When sodium nitrate solution is treated with Silver nitrate solution, no visible reaction is observed.
