<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.
Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.
The chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium nitrate and aqueous ammonia (ammonium hydroxide) is given as:
A white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide is formed in the above reaction.
Ionic form of the above equation follows:
As, ammonium and nitrate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.
The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:
Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.
