<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:

Mg(NO_3)_2(aq.)+2NH_4OH(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4NO_3(aq.)

A white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide is formed in the above reaction.

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)

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:

Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

How might the molecules inside an ice pack be different from the liquid inside of an insulated cup?​
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The molecules inside the ice pack are frozen therefore they are stuck in place. The molecules inside an insulated cup aren't frozen but still stuck inside of their container so that they can not fly out.
