Michael asks…How do you tell if a reaction will occur when two aqueous solutions are mixed?How do you tell if a reaction will occur when two aqueous solutions are mixed? Specifically, why is there a reaction between:
silver nitrate and sodium chloride; calcium bromide and potassium phosphate; iron (III) acetate and sodium sulfide
but not between:
barium chloride and sodium nitrate; ammonium chloride and mercury (II) nitrate
Am having trouble grasping this concept, thanks for any
