IONIC EQUATIONS
An ionic equation is a chemical equation in which electrolytes are written as dissociated ions. Ionic equations are
used for single and double displacement reactions that occur in aqueous solutions. For example in the following
precipitation reaction:
CaCl2(aq) + 2AgNO3(aq)
Ca(NO3)2(aq) + 2AgCl(s)
2AgCl (s)
AgCl (s)
In this aqueous reaction the Ca2+ and the NO3 ions remain in solution and are not part of the reaction. They are
termed spectator ions and do not participate directly in the reaction, as they exist with the same oxidation state on
both the reactant and product side of the chemical equation.
In a neutralization or acid/base reaction, the net ionic equation will usually be:
H+ + OH
H2O
There are a few acid/base reactions that produce a precipitate in addition to the water molecule shown above. An
example would be the reaction of barium hydroxide with phosphoric acid because the insoluble salt barium
phosphate is produced in addition to water.
Double displacement reactions that feature a carbonate reacting with an acid have the net ionic equation:
2 H+ + CO32
H2O + CO2
If every ion is a "spectator ion", then there was no reaction, and the net ionic equation is null.
SPECTATOR ION
A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. Spectator ions can be
observed in the reaction of aqueous solutions of sodium chloride and copper (II) sulfate:
2Na+(aq) + 2Cl(aq) + Cu2+(aq) + SO42(aq) 2Na+(aq) + SO42(aq) + CuCl2 (s)
The Na+ and SO42 ions are spectator ions since they remain unchanged on both sides of the equation. They simply
"watch" the other ions react, hence the name. They are present in total ionic equations to balance the charges of the
ions. In reaction stoichiometry, spectator ions are removed from a complete ionic equation to form a net ionic
equation. For the above example this yields:
So: 2Na+(aq) + 2Cl(aq) + Cu2+(aq) + SO42(aq) 2Na+(aq) + SO42(aq) + CuCl2 (s)
(Where x = Spectator ion)
= 2Cl(aq) + Cu2+(aq) CuCl2

Na+ + OH- + H+ + Cl- H2O(l) + Na+ + Cl
Step 3: Write the NET IONIC EQUATION
In this example, Na+ and Cl- are spectator ions. They do not undergo change in the reaction. Therefore, they
are removed.
OH- + H+ H2O(l)
Example 2:
The reaction of calcium carbonate with hydrochloric acid to form calcium chloride, water, and carbon dioxide:
Chemical Equation: CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Total Ionic Equation: CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) Ca2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Net Ionic Equation: CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) Ca2+(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Example3:
Write the ionic equation for the word equation
Sodium (s) + hydrochloric acid (aq) sodium chloride (aq) + hydrogen (g)
Solution:
Step 1: Write the chemical equation and balance it.
2Na (s) + 2HCl (aq) 2NaCl (aq) + H2 (g)
Step 2: Split the ions. (Only compounds that are aqueous are split into ions.)
2Na (s) + 2H+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) 2Na+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) + H2 (g)
Step 3: Cancel out spectator ions. (Spectator ions are ions that remain the same in their original states
before and after a chemical reaction.)
2Na (s) + 2H+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) 2Na+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) + H2(g)
Step 4: Write a balanced ionic equation
2Na (s) + 2H+ (aq) 2Na+ (aq) + H2 (g)
