These reactions can also form an insoluble gas that bubbles out of solution, or water in a neutralization reaction. The cations in the above reaction are the sodium and calcium ions, Na+ and Ca2+ . One of the two products is a precipitate because it is insoluble in water.
How do you know if a precipitate will form?
If the rules state that an ion is soluble, then it remains in its aqueous ion form. If an ion is insoluble based on the solubility rules, then it forms a solid with an ion from the other reactant. If all the ions in a reaction are shown to be soluble, then no precipitation reaction occurs.
Type of Chemical Reaction: For this reaction we have a double replacement reaction. Balancing Strategies: In this double replacement (displacement) reaction the Ag and Na atoms are switching places. It is helpful to consider the nitrate (NO3) and phosphate (PO4) to be one item when balancing the equation.

Type of Chemical Reaction: For this reaction we have a double replacement reaction.
Sodium Phosphate, Tribasic is an odorless, white, crystalline (sand-like) solid.
