Write the net ionic equation for the reaction shown. Include physical states.

Question

2HNO3(aq)+Sr(OH)2(aq)———>2H2O(I)+Sr(NO3)2(aq)

net ionic equation:

Answer 1

the balanced equation: 2HNO₃(aq)+Sr(OH)₂(aq)———>2H₂O(I)+Sr(NO₃)₂(aq)

the completed ionic equation: 2H⁺ + 2NO₃ + Sr²⁺ + 2OH^- ----> 2H₂O(I) + Sr²⁺ + 2NO₃

you don't break pure solid, liquid or gas, and weak electrolytes in the completed ionic equation, cancel out the spectator ions, NO₃ , Sr²⁺ . You have the net ionic equation as following.

2H⁺ (aq) + 2OH^- (aq) -----> 2H₂O(I) simplify it as H⁺ (aq) + OH^- (aq) -----> H₂O(I)
