Answer:

gas molecules scatter short wavelengths of light (blue and violet) more than long (red and orange) so the sky looks blue. at sunrise and sunset, the light passes through thicker atmosphere and blue light is scattered more, so mostly red and orange light is visible.

Answer: The net ionic equation is written below.

Explanation:

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 sodium carbonate and nickel (II) chloride is given as:

$Na_2CO_3(aq.)+NiCl_2(aq.)\rightarrow 2NaCl(aq.)+NiCO_3(s)$

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Cl^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)+2Na^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)$

As, sodium and chloride 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:

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)$
