Consider the following equation. AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) NaNO3 (aq) + AgCl (s) Called a formula equation. Ag+ (aq) + NO3-(aq) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + AgCl (s) Called an ionic equation. Spectator Ions. Ag+ (aq) + Cl-(aq) AgCl (s) Called the net ionic equation. This reaction goes to completion because the solid silver chloride is formed. It is called a precipitate.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
