How Is AgCl3 Synthesized?

AgCl3, or silver chloride, is not a stable compound and cannot be synthesized. Silver chloride is only stable in the form of AgCl, which can be synthesized by combining aqueous solutions of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and sodium chloride (NaCl). The reaction between the two solutions produces a white precipitate of AgCl:

AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

The resulting AgCl can be purified by washing with distilled water to remove any impurities before drying.
