What is the best catalyst to use for the reaction between AgNO3 and NaCl that would result in a change in activation of energy so therefore more precipitate formed. Please give me the ways I can catalyze this reaction with the methodology on how can I carry it out. please be more specific.




The reaction of chloride ion with silver ion is 1:1 and highly *quantitative*. It is one of the best studied reactions inorganic chemistry. You cannot carry this reaction in basic/alkaline medium by any means. There is no need of any catalyst. This was worked out at least 120 years ago by people who were interested in atomic weight determinations. Theodore Richard got Nobel prize on this subject.
