Question

Write the balanced COMPLETE ionic equation for the reaction when

Answer 1

Answer:

Ba²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) + 2 Rb⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq) = Ba(OH)₂(s) + 2 Rb⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Let's consider the molecular equation between barium nitrate and rubidium hydroxide to produce barium hydroxide and rubidium nitrate.

Ba(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2 RbOH(aq) = Ba(OH)₂(s) + 2 RbNO₃(aq)

The complete ionic equation includes all the ions and the molecular species.

Ba²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) + 2 Rb⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq) = Ba(OH)₂(s) + 2 Rb⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq)
