Question

Net ionic equation for Calcium hydroxide reacting with ammonium Chloride?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation with the states first:

Ca(OH)₂ (aq) + 2NH₄Cl (aq) → CaCl₂ (aq) + 2NH₃ (g) + 2H₂O (l)

Step2: Write the complete ionic equation, break only the aqueous ones only :

Ca²⁺ + 2OH⁻ + 2NH₄⁺ + 2Cl⁻ → Ca⁺² + 2Cl⁻ + 2NH₃ (g) + 2H₂O (l)

Step 3: cancel the spectator ions ( the ions which stay the same like calciumn and chlorine ions here)

2OH⁻ + 2NH₄⁺ → 2NH₃ (g) + 2H₂O (l)
