What is the net ionic equation for the precipitation reaction between BaCl2 and Na2So4? I know the answer ( Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)
elixir [45]

Answer:

Net ionic equation:

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)  →   BaSO₄(s)

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

BaCl₂ +  Na₂SO₄   →   BaSO₄ + NaCl

Balanced Chemical equation:

BaCl₂(aq) +  Na₂SO₄(aq)   →   BaSO₄(s) + 2NaCl(aq)

Ionic equation:

Ba²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) + 2Na⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)  →  BaSO₄(s)+ 2Na⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻ (aq)

Net ionic equation:

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)  →   BaSO₄(s)

The Cl⁻(aq) and Na⁺ (aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The BaSO₄ can not be splitted into ions because it is present in solid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.

Consider the reaction below. 2Al2O3 4Al + 3O2 What is the mole ratio of oxygen to aluminum?
DiKsa [7]
The answer is 3/4.

The coefficient next to each reactant represents the amount of moles. The compound for oxygen is O2 and the compound for aluminum is 4. We can see that the number next to O2 is 3 and the number next to aluminum is 4.

In the reaction Zn(s) + NO3- → (aq) Zn2+ (aq) + NH4+ (aq) which element is reduced?
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:  N (the Nitrogen)

Explanation:

Reduction refers to a decrease in oxidation number/state due to the gaining of electrons. As such the species that is being reduced will show a decrease in oxidation state.

Based on the redox rules,

Zn(s) has oxidation number of 0 [<em>rule 1: the oxidation number of an element in its free (uncombined) state is zero</em>]

Zn²⁺ has oxidation number of +2 [<em>rule 2: The oxidation number of a monatomic (one-atom) ion is the same as the charge on the ion</em>]

Now, since Nitrogen is enbedded in a polyatomic ion in both cases, you have to do a bit a calculation to obtain  the oxidation state.

For NO₃⁻  :   N + (-2 × 3) = -1

                              N - 6 = -1

                                    N = 5

<em>[Rule 3: The sum of all oxidation numbers in a polyatomic (many-atom) ion is equal to the charge on the ion; Rule 6: The oxidation state of hydrogen in a compound is usually +1]</em>

<em />

For NH₄⁺ :

          N + (4 x 1) = 1

                 N + 4 = 1

                       N = -3

[<em>Rule 3: The sum of all oxidation numbers in a polyatomic (many-atom) ion is equal to the charge on the ion; Rule 5: The oxidation number of oxygen in a compound is usually –2]</em>

Therefore, Zn moves from oxidation state of 0 to +2 (oxidation), while N moves from +5 to -3 (reduction).
