Question:

Enter the net ionic equation, including phases, for the reaction of $\mathrm{AgNO}_3(\mathrm{aq})$ with $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{SO}_3(\mathrm{aq})$.

Answer:

The reaction between given two salts can be expressed in a full chemical equation:

$$2 \mathrm{AgNO}_{3(aq)} + \mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{SO}_{3(aq)} \rightarrow \mathrm{Ag}_2\mathrm{SO}_{3(s)} \downarrow + 2 \mathrm{KNO}_{3(aq)}$$

Silver sulphite is precipitated as a white powder $\mathrm{Ag_2SO_3}$.

The complete ionic equation is derived from the full chemical equation:

2 \mathrm{Ag}^+_{(aq)} + 2 \mathrm{NO}_3^-_{(aq)} + 2 \mathrm{K}^+_{(aq)} + \mathrm{SO}_3^{2-}_3(aq) \rightarrow \mathrm{Ag}_2\mathrm{SO}_{3(s)} \downarrow + 2 \mathrm{K}^+_{(aq)} + 2 \mathrm{NO}_3^-_{(aq)}

The net ionic equation is obtained as the following after reducing a complete ionic equation:

2 \mathrm{Ag}^+_{(aq)} + \mathrm{SO}_3^{2-}_3(aq) \rightarrow \mathrm{Ag}_2\mathrm{SO}_{3(s)} \downarrow
