Question
two liquids mix and a solid forms that sinks to the bottom. *
what conclusion can you make about the products?
a combustion reaction occurred
a precipitate was formed
they are dissolved evenly
the liquids are miscible
When two liquids mix and a solid forms that sinks to the bottom, this is a classic example of a precipitation reaction. A precipitate is an insoluble solid that forms from a solution during a chemical reaction. Combustion reactions involve a substance reacting with oxygen (usually with heat and light as products). If the products were dissolved evenly, there would be no solid. If the liquids were miscible, they would form a single liquid layer (not a solid).
