Identify the spectator ions in the following complete ionic equation. 2k (aq) s2−(aq) pb2 (aq) 2no−3(aq)→pbs(s) 2k (aq) 2no−3(aq) express your answers as ions separated by a comma.

Answer : The spectator ions are,

Explanation :

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

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 given balanced ionic equation will be,

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

In this equation, are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

< > according to newton's third law of motion, forces always act in equal but opposite pairs. another way of saying this is for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.< >
