To gravimetrically analyze the silver content of a piece of jewelry made from an alloy of Ag\ce{Ag} and Cu\ce{Cu}, a student dissolves a small preweighed sample in HNOX3(aq)\ce{HNO3(aq)}. AgX+(aq)\ce{Ag+(aq)} and CuX2+(aq)\ce{Cu^{2+}(aq)} ions form in the solution. Which of the following should be the next step in the analytical process?
