I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The reaction that occurs most rapidly at room temperature would be 2AgNO3 (aq) + Na2CrO4 (aq) → Ag2CrO4 (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq). T his is an ionic reaction involving simple exchange of ions in a solution after which the insoluble silver chromate precipitates down.
