Which of the following represents a balanced equation for the reaction between aqueous silver nitrate and aqueous sodium chloride?

1. (A)\text{Ag}(\text{NO}_3)_2(\text{aq}) + 2\text{NaCl}(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{AgCl}_2(\text{s}) + 2\text{NaNO}_3(\text{aq})
2. (B)\text{AgNO}_3(\text{aq}) + 2\text{NaCl}(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{AgCl}_2(\text{s}) + \text{Na}_2\text{NO}_3(\text{aq})
3. (C)\text{Ag}_2\text{NO}_3(\text{aq}) + \text{NaCl}(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{Ag}_2\text{Cl}(\text{s}) + \text{NaNO}_3(\text{aq})
4. (D)\text{AgNO}_3(\text{aq}) + \text{NaCl}(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{AgCl}(\text{s}) + \text{NaNO}_3(\text{aq})
