* Formation of a precipitate: A milky white solid will immediately form in the solution. This solid is silver bromide (AgBr), which is insoluble in water.
* The reaction equation: The reaction is a double displacement reaction:
AgNO₃ (aq) + KBr (aq) → AgBr (s) + KNO₃ (aq)
* The precipitate: The precipitate, silver bromide, is what makes the solution appear milky white. It is light-sensitive, so if exposed to prolonged sunlight, it will darken.
