Precipitation reactions always occur when two aqueous solutions are mixed (T/F)

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Precipitation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which two aqueous solution upon mixing together results in the formation of an insoluble solid.

For example, $NaCl(aq) + AgNO_{3} \rightarrow NaNO_{3}(aq) + AgCl(s)$

Here AgCl is present in solid state so, it is the precipitate.

But it is not necessarily true that two aqueous solutions will always result in the formation of a precipitate.

For example, $NaCl(aq) + KNO_{3}(aq) \rightarrow KCl(aq) + NaNO_{3}(aq)$

Hence, we can conclude that the statement precipitation reactions always occur when two aqueous solutions are mixed, is false.
