Answer:


Na^+\text{ and }CO_3^-

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete ionic equation : In complete ionic equation, all the substance that are strong electrolyte and present in an aqueous are represented in the form of ions.

Net ionic equation : In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Only the species which are present in aqueous state dissociate.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The complete ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,


2H^+_((aq))+CO_3^-_((aq))+2Na^+_((aq))+2OH^-_((aq))\rightarrow 2H_2O_((l))+CO_3^-_((aq))+2Na^+_((aq))

In this equation the species present are,
Na^+\text{ and }CO_3^- are the spectator ions.

Hence, the net ionic equation contains specie is


2H^+_((aq))+2OH^-_((aq))\rightarrow 2H_2O_((l))
