Answer:

2OH-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → 2H2O(l)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

sodium hydroxide = NaOH

hydrosulfuric acid = H2S

Step 2: The unbalanced equation

NaOH(aq) + H2S(aq) → Na2S(aq) + H2O(l)

Step 3: Balancing the equation

On the left side we have 1x Na (in NaOH), on the right side we have 2x Na (in Na2S). To balance the amount of Na on both sides, we have to multiply NaOH on the left side by 2.

2NaOH(aq) + H2S(aq) → Na2S(aq) + H2O(l)

On the left side we have 4x H (2x in NaOH and 2x in H2S), on the right side we have 2x H (in H2O). To balance the amount of H on both sides, we have to multiply H2O on the right side by 2. Now the equation is balanced.

2NaOH(aq) + H2S(aq) → Na2S(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Step 4: The net ionic equation

2Na+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + S^2-(aq) → 2Na+(aq) + S^2-(aq) + 2H2O(l)

The net ionic equation, for which spectator ions are omitted - remember that spectator ions are those ions located on both sides of the equation - will , after canceling those spectator ions in both side, look like this:

2OH-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → 2H2O(l)
