Answer:

NH₄ClO₃ and NaCl

Step-by-step explanation:

This appears to be a double-displacement reaction. In these reactions, the cation of one compound is swapped with the cation of another.

So, NH₄⁺ from NH₄Cl is swapped with Na⁺ from NaClO₃. It is important that the resulting ionic compound has an overall charge of 0. In this case, the charges perfectly balance, so there only needs to be one atom of each ion in the compounds.

1.) NH₄ClO

-----> NH₄⁺ and ClO₃⁻

-----> +1 + (-1) = 0

2.) NaCl

-----> Na⁺ and Cl⁻

-----> +1 + (-1) = 0

The chemical equation:

NH₄Cl + NaClO₃ -----> NH₄ClO₃ + NaCl
