Question

A net ionic equation is an equation showing only the species that actually change during the reaction. A spectator ion remains unchanged in the reaction and appears on both sides of the equation. A complete ionic equation is a chemical equation showing all of the species as they are actually present in solution. A molecular equation is a chemical equation showing the complete, neutral formulas for every compound in a reaction. All of the statements are true.

Answer 1

All of the statements are true

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider a reaction :
`HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_(2)O`

Molecular equation of this reaction should be written in terms of neutral and complete form of all compounds.

Molecular equation:
`HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_(2)O`

Complete ionic equation is written in terms of constituting ions of each compounds.

Complete ionic equation:
`H^(+)+Cl^(-)+Na^(+)+OH^(-)\rightarrow Na^(+)+Cl^(-)+H_(2)O`

Same ions present in both side of complete ionic equation are omitted to write net ionic equation. These ions are called spectator ions.

Here
`Na^(+)` and Cl^{-} are spectator ions.

So, net ionic eqaution:
`H^(+)+OH^(-)\rightarrow H_(2)O`

Hence all of the statements are true.
