Answer:
Pb⁺²(aq) + CO₃⁻²(aq) → PbCO₃ (s)
In net ionic equation we cancel the ions that have equal moles on both sides so Na⁺¹ and NO₃⁻¹ have equal moles on both sides so we canceled them.
Explanation:
Net ionic equation:
In net ionic equation we only write the ions that are involved in reaction. If the system have same moles of ions in initial and final stages we cancel them as they have the same amount and are present in ionic form in the reaction medium. To formulate an ionic equation we just cancel the ions which have the same moles in initial and final stages.
Chemical equation:
Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Na₂CO₃(aq) → PbCO₃ (s) + NaNO₃ (aq)
Balanced chemical equation:
In a balanced chemical equation we write the reactants and products in molecular form with number of moles.
Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Na₂CO₃(aq) → PbCO₃ (s) + 2NaNO₃ (aq)
Ionic equation:
In ionic equation we write the equation in ionic form. It involves all the ions which will produce when we add any ionic compound in reaction medium.
Pb⁺² +2NO₃⁻¹ + CO₃⁻² + 2Na⁺¹ → PbCO3 (s) + 2NO₃⁻¹ (aq) + 2Na⁺¹ (aq)
Net ionic equation
In net ionic equation we cancel the ions that have equal moles on both sides. As we can see in the above ionic equation that Na⁺¹ and NO₃⁻¹ have equal moles on both sides so we canceled them.
Pb⁺²(aq) + CO₃⁻²(aq) → PbCO₃ (s)
