Expert Solution
Step 1

CuCl2 and Na2S are dissolved in water. So, they represented as (aq).

Molecular equation is

   CuCl2 (aq) + Na2S (aq) ---------> CuS (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)

  According to solubility rules,

  Sulfides are insoluble except 1st group and ammonium ions. So, CuS is insoluble.

So, precipitate is formed in the reaction.
