The process by which ions join to reform the solid is called dissolution

I believe the process by which ions join to reform the solid is called precipitation. It is a process in which ions leave a solution and regenerate an ionic solid. For example; Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) = AgCl (s). Dissolution on the other hand is the process in which an ionic solid dissolves in a polar liquid; it is the opposite of precipitation.
