Consider molecular, net ionic, and complete ionic equations.
(a) What is the difference between these types of equations?
Molecular equations are
written without regard to the dissociation of any ionic reactants or products,
with all formulas represented as neutral substances. Complete ionic equations
represent all dissolved
ionic compounds with the formulas for their dissociated ions, including
spectator ions. Net ionic equations represent only those dissolved ions that are chemically or physically
changed by the reaction, omitting any spectator ions.
(b) In what circumstance would the complete and net ionic equations for a reaction be identical?
If there are no spectator ions
involved in a reaction, its complete and net ionic equations will be the same.
