©YIJC [Turn over 9 13 Two experiments were conducted. In the first set-up, 0.1 mol dm–3 of sodium ethanoate and 0.1 mol dm–3 silver nitrate was mixed and a white precipitate was obtained. On adding potassium bromide, the precipitate turns cream. In the second set -up, 0.1 mol dm –3 of silver nitrate was added to potassium bromide and a cream precipitate was obtained. On adding sodium ethanoate, there is no further change. What can be deduced from these observations? A The cream precipitate is due to the silver ethanoate. B Silver bromide is more soluble than silver ethanoate. C The white precipitate in the first se
