Write the balanced COMPLETE ionic equation for the reaction when Na₂CO₃ and AgNO₃ are mixed in aqueous solution. If no reaction occurs, simply write only NR.

Answer 1

Na₂CO₃(aq) + 2AgNO₃(aq) ==> 2NaNO₃(aq) + Ag₂CO₃(s) ... balanced molecular equation

YOU NEED TO INCLUDE PHASES !

To get the complete ionic equation, ionize/dissociate any aqueous species leaving any liquid, solids or gases as they are.

2Na⁺(aq) + CO₃^2-(aq) + 2Ag⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) ==> 2Na⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) + Ag₂CO₃(s)

Answer 2

Hi Folo D.,

The value of Ksp for silver carbonate, Ag2CO3, is 8.10×10−12. Does that suggest anything to you?
