Precipitation Reactions

Ngā Whāinga Ako 🔗



The video before shows us a few very important things:

  1. Ionic bonding
  2. Word formulas
  3. Symbol formulas
  4. Precipitation reaction

Precipitation Reaction 🔗


Doing A Precipitation Reaction 🔗

  1. Achieved: A word equation
  2. Merit: A balanced symbol equation
  3. Excellence: Predicting the precipitate (solubility rules)

Practice 🔗

Write a word equation, symbol equation and predict the precipitate for this reaction.


More Practice 🔗

This video demonstrates three more precipitation reactions. For each, write an observation that would indicate to you that a precipitation reaction is occurring, then a word and symbol equation and predict/explain the precipitate with your solubility rules.
