Question
A solution of potassium chloride when mixed with silver nitrate solution, an insoluble white substance is formed. Write the chemical reaction involved and also mention the type of the chemical reaction?

Answer

The solution of KCl with AgNO3 form white precipitate of AgCl. This is a double displacement reaction.
KCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)
