Strategy:
 Precipitation reactions involving Silver ions and Iodide ions occur nearly to completion because of the extremely low solubility product () of AgI. While one ion is typically in excess, both the cation and anion remain in the solution in trace amounts governed by equilibrium.

Step 1: Calculate moles of reactants
- Moles of .
- Moles of .

Step 2: Identify species in solution
The reaction is .
-  precipitates until the ion product equals .
-  is in excess:  remains (significant amount
