Detailed Solution

Concept- Precipitation response is a response in which two different answerable mariners who are in waterless results combine to form products, out of which one is called precipitate which is an undoable swab. The double relegation response is a Precipitation response involving the product of a solid form residue known as the precipitate. The response also takes place when two or more results with different mariners are combined, performing in the conformation of the undoable mariners that precipitates out of the result.
The white precipitate of silver chloride is formed (

A g C l

) which is a solid. This solid silver chloride is insoluble in water. Precipitation reactions help in determining the presence of different ions present in a particular solution

A g N O 3 (a q) + N a C l (a q) → A g C l (s) ↓ + N a N O 3 (a q)

Hence, the Addition of silver nitrate to sodium chloride solution causes precipitation of silver chloride as an example of double displacement or precipitation.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
