Chemistry A level help!!
Q2.Samples of 1-chloropropane and ethanoyl chloride can be distinguished by the addition of
an aqueous solution of silver nitrate.
State what you would observe with each sample.
Observation with 1-chloropropane
Observation with ethanoyl chloride.
the answer is that ethanol chloride gives a white precipitate but there is no visible change with 1-chloropropane
why is this?

check the reaction of GCSE chemical tests with silver nitrates, and check why the different structures of the two compounds means they might react differently.

I still don't understand, as wouldn't both of them form Agcl, as they both have a cl in their molecule?

that's what I thought, but maybe forces like London forces if one has a double bond, etc? Do you have an answer sheet/can find the answer online? What is the answer and what explanation does it give?
