A precipitate is the name for a solid which has formed from a solution - either through a reaction which gives an insoluble product, or by cooling of a saturated solution.

But in terms of organic chemistry (particularly for net ionic equations) it is considered a solid.

Does CaCl2 form a precipitate?
No, calcium chloride will dissolve in water.
Can sugar dissolve in tap water after a period of time?
What temperature is the tap water? A little will dissolve in room temperature tap water, but if you raise the temperature of the water more sugar will dissolve. If you boil the sugar, it will break down into two simpler sugars and won't precipitate when the water is cooled.
Do all solid particles dissolve in water explain your answer?
Water acts as a solvent. Solvents are "dissolvers". Water acts as a solvent. Solvents are "dissolvers".
Why is isopropanol used to precipitate DNA and what does it do to DNA to make it precipitate?
As DNA is completely soluble in water, but not in alcohol, like isopropanol, when isoprop is added, its engaged more and more water molecule to interact, as a result, less water molecules are available to dissolve DNA, and DNA statrs ppt out.
How would you recognize when a precipitate has formed?
A insoluble solid will not dissolve in liquid.
What is difference between a substance that is solube in water and one that is insolube in water?
There is no such thing as a soluble precipitate A precipitate a solid that is formed in a chemical reaction, therefor only a insoluble precipitate can occur, and the soluble would remain as a soluble solution. The difference between a soluble and insoluble precipitate is that a insoluble precipitate is incapable of dissolving in a liquid, and a solid is formed in the reaction, where as the soluble substance will dissolve in the liquid.
Does CaCl2 form a precipitate?
No, calcium chloride will dissolve in water.
What is a solid in a solution?
A precipitate is a solid in a solution. The precipitate will not dissolve in the solution, it is insoluble!! The opposite of a precipitate is a solute.

How do you know if a precipitation reaction has occurred?
precipitate means insoluble. Usually white stuff or something is found that doesn't dissolve in water. If aqueous solution yields a solid it is the precipitate

What is the purpose of washing the precipitate?
because hot water can dissolve the precipitate.

Why was ionic precipitation chosen for the reaction of zinc sulphate and barium chloride?
since both substance will dissolve, the barium and the sulfate will come together and barium sulfate does not dissolve in water so barium sulfate will be the precipitate.
What does water droplets precipitate as?
it precipitate as rain
How do you separate sodium chloride and lead chloride?
Dissolve the mixture in water. The precipitate is lead chloride. By filtering the solution and followed by evaporation, sodium chloride can be extracted.
