A precipitate is a solid that is formed when mixing two solutions. The dissolved ions or molecules from the two solutions mix and form a new compound which is no longer soluble, and so a solid forms. The identity and composition of the solid depends completely on what two solutions have been mixed together. Without knowing what is being mixed, you cannot know what the composition of the precipitate is.
