The following ionic equation not balanced represents the rea

The following ionic equation (not balanced) represents the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and manganese(II) sulfate are combined. Identify the spectator ions in the equation, and then write the balanced net ionic equation for the reaction. Ba2+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) + Mn2+ (aq) + SO42- (aq) BaSO4 (s) + Mn2+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) Use the pull-down choices to specify states such as (aq) or (s). If a box is not needed leave it blank.

Solution

ionic equation :

Ba2+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) + Mn2+ (aq) + SO42- (aq) --------------> BaSO4 (s) + Mn2+ (aq) + NO3- (aq)

spectator ions :

NO3- (aq)

Mn+2 (aq)

Net ionic equation :

Ba2+ (aq) + SO42- (aq) --------------> BaSO4 (s)
