b. Combination reaction
c. Thermal decomposition reaction
ii. Reaction (a) is a precipitation reaction because precipitate of silver chloride is formed as the product. When a product of a chemical reaction is obtained in the form of a precipitate (insoluble substance), then that reaction is called as precipitation reaction.
