Question

For the chemical reaction

write the net ionic equation, including the phases.

net ionic equation:

Which ions are considered spectator ions for this reaction? 

Na+

ClO-4

H+

OH-

Answer 1

As in your previous question, let us first write the complete molecular equation and then refer to your solubility rules.

Compete molecular equation:

HClO₄(aq) + NaOH(aq) ==> H₂O(l) + NaClO₄(aq)

This is an acid/base neutralization which produces liquid water and no precipitate. Since all species except H₂O(l) completely dissociate, they are not included in the net ionic equation.

Net ionic equation: H⁺(aq) + OH^-(aq) ==> H₂O(l)

Spectator ions are ClO₄^-, Na⁺
