lower the solubility of the product in solution so it precipitated out

increase the solubility of the product in solution so it precipitated out

lower the solubility of the product in solution so it stayed in solution

increase the solubility of the product in solution so it stayed in solution

lower the solubility of the product in solution so it precipitated out

increase the solubility of the product in solution so it precipitated out

lower the solubility of the product in solution so it stayed in solution

increase the solubility of the product in solution so it stayed in solution

Explanation / Answer

lower the solubility of the product in solution so it precipitated out

generally organic compoounds are insoluble in water as solvent, so it will precipitate out.
