Write the equation for the dissolution of AgCL(s) in H20(I).Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer.

I tried writing it as AgCl <> Ag+ + Cl- but this is incorrect.

AgCl + H2O --> Ag+ + Cl- + H+ + OH-

Maybe they mean ?
(Chemistry is not my field, guessing)
The secret words in this question are "Identify ALL of the phases...."
AgCl(s) + H2O ==> Ag^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)
On second thought, I didn't identify the phase of water so I would redo it as
AgCl(s) + H2O(l) ==> Ag^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)
I don't know but I have the same question for chemistry
