Introduction
precipitate reactions are two aqueous solutions that form a solid (precipitate)
Ex: B1G1(aq) + B2G2(aq) = B1G2(aq) + B2G1(s)
In this reaction B2G1 is the precipitate in this
Ex: B1G1(aq) + B2G2(aq) = B1G2(aq) + B2G1(s)
In this reaction B2G1 is the precipitate in this
How to Write Precipitate Reactions:
1. Swap the partners (like shown in the example)
2. Place the charges (given from the periodic table)
3. Balance chemical equation
4. Predict the precipitate (from rules OR solubility chart)

How to Predict the Precipitate
there are three rules...
1. All group 1A compounds dissolve in water
2. NH4 (ammonium) compounds dissolve in water
3. No3 (nitrate) compounds dissolve in water
