What does the formation of a precipitate indicate?

Answer 1

Well, it indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.

Additionally, we can use the following stoichiometrically balanced equation to show how a precipitate forms:

#AgNO_3(aq) + NaCl(aq) rarr AgCl(s)darr + NaNO_3(aq)#

We could also create a net ionic equation since the sodium and nitrate ions are traveling with us:

#Ag^(+) + Cl^(-) rarr AgCl(s)darr#

There has been a noticeable change in the chemical composition as a result of bonds being broken and new ones being formed.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
