Question:

Consider the generic ionic compounds with the formulas AX and BY and the following solubility rules:

AX soluble; BY soluble; AY soluble; BX insoluble

Let circles represent A+ ions; squares represent B+ ions; triangles represent X- ions; and diamonds represent Y- ions. We represent solutions of the two compounds (AX and BY) as follows:AX(aq) A+ X BY (aq) B+ -Y

From the answer options, choose the representation that correctly shows the result of mixing the two solutions (AX and BY) and the correct equation to represent the reaction.AX (aq) + BY (aq) (a) AY(s) AY(s) + BX (aq) NO REACTION (b) AX (aq) + BY (aq) (c) BX(s) BX (s) + AY(aq)
