A net ionic equation simply means to cancel out any ions which appear on both sides of the chemical equation that are not involved in the reaction - they're called spectator ions. 
We'll first write out the full ionic equation, showing all ions and compounds formed, then rewrite and not include spectator ions.

2FeBr3(aq) + 3Na2S(Aq) --> Fe2S3(s) + 6NaBr(aq)   [original eqation]

2Fe3+(aq) + 6Br-(aq) + 3Na+(aq) + 3S2-(aq)--> Fe2S3(s)+6Na+(aq) + 6Br-(aq)
[full ionic equation]

2Fe3+(aq) + 3S2-(aq)--> Fe2S3(s)   [net ionic equation]

notice that Br- and Na+ appear unreacted on both sides of the full ionic equation, so they cancel out and do not appear in the net ionic.

Would fluorine form a positive or a negative ion?
IceJOKER [234]
It would form a negative ion... it lacks 1 e in its valence shell., it is easier for F to accept an e than to shed all existing 7.
e= electron
