Solution

The correct options are
A Ag+(aq)+ClAgCl(aq)
D HC2H3O2(l)+OH(aq)H2O(O)+C2H3O2(aq)
Option A and D are correct answers. Both are precipitation reaction.
When Ag+ reacts with Cl we get a white precipitate of AgCl that is silver chloride.
Ag+ + Cl = AgCl
When Acetic acid reacts with a base, let us suppose Calcium Hydroxide, that is Ca(OH)2, water is formed along with Calcium acetate which is a white colored precipitate. The reaction can be written as-
2CH3COOH + Ca(OH)2 = 2H2O + (CH3COO)2Ca
