What is the balanced, net ionic equation for the reaction shown below? Pb(NO3)2(aq) + H2SO4(aq) + PbSO4(s) + 2 HNO3(aq)

The net ionic equation is   Pb²⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇒ PbSO₄(s)

The given equation is

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + H2SO4(aq) + PbSO4(s) + 2 HNO3(aq)

Writing its ionic equation

Pb²⁺(aq)+ 2NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇒ PbSO₄(s) + 2H⁺(aq)+NO₃⁻(aq)

Now the ionic equation contains spectator ions that do not react. They are present in both the reactant and the product.  When these ions are removed, the ionic equation is called the net ionic equation.

2NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) ⇒ a spectator ions

The net ionic equation is:

Pb²⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇒ PbSO₄(s)

Required

The net ionic equation

Solution

The equation of a chemical reaction can be expressed in the equation of the ions

In the ion equation, there is a spectator ion that is the ion that does not change (does not react) because it is present before and after the reaction

When these ions are removed, the ionic equation is called the net ionic equation

For gases and solids including water (H₂O) can be written as an ionized molecule

Ionic equation :

Pb²⁺(aq)+ 2NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇒ PbSO₄(s) + 2H⁺(aq)+NO₃⁻(aq)

2NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) ⇒ a spectator ions

The net ionic equation :

Pb²⁺(aq)+SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇒ PbSO₄(s)

because of all the things that happen around the us, many people get into arguments which sadly could get physical, but we should actually make a change for that.
