Double Decomposition
Reaction between two chemical substances (usually salts in solution) that results in the exchange of a constituent from each compound to create two different compounds.
For example, if silver nitrate solution is added to a solution of sodium chloride, there is an exchange of ions yielding sodium nitrate and silver chloride (which is precipitated).
