Net ionic equation
Cu²⁺(aq)+S²⁻(aq)⇒CuS(s)
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Double-Replacement reactions. Happens if there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product
In the ion equation, there is a spectator ion that is the ion which does not react because it is present before and after the reaction
When these ions are removed, the ionic equation is called the net ionic equation
For gases and solids including water (H₂O) can be written as an ionized molecule
Reaction
CuSO₄(aq)+Na₂S(aq)⇒CuS(s)+Na₂SO₄
ionic equation
Cu²⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq)+2Na⁺(aq)+S²⁻(aq)⇒CuS(s)+2Na⁺(aq+SO₄²⁻(aq)
spectator ions : 2Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻
Net ionic equation
Cu²⁺(aq)+S²⁻(aq)⇒CuS(s)
