## Step 1A precipitate is a solid that forms in a solution during a chemical reaction. This solid is insoluble in the solution and separates out from the rest of the solution.## Step 2Precipitates are typically formed during a type of chemical reaction known as a double replacement reaction. In a double replacement reaction, two ionic compounds in aqueous solution are combined, and the ions switch partners, forming two new compounds.## Step 3One of these new compounds is usually insoluble in water and forms a solid, which is the precipitate. The other options provided do not accurately describe a precipitate. An aqueous compound is a compound that is dissolved in water, and a solid formed from a single replacement reaction is not specifically referred to as a precipitate.
