Write the balanced COMPLETE ionic equation for the reaction when aqueous NiCl₂ and aqueous Na₂S are mixed in solution to form solid NiS and aqueous NaCl. If no reaction occurs, simply write only NR.

Answer:

Explanation:

The chemical reaction of the well-balanced equation is as follows:

[tex]\mathbf{2NiCl_{2(aq)}+2Na_2S_{(aq)} \to 4NaCl_{(aq)}+2NiS_{s}}[/tex]

The aforementioned reaction's ionic equation is:

[tex]\mathbf{2Ni^{2+}_{(aq)}+4Cl^-_{(aq)}+ 4Na^+_{(aq)}+2S^{2-}_{(aq)} \to 4Na^+_{(aq)}+4Cl^-_{(aq)}+2NiS_{(s)}}[/tex]

From above; Na⁺ and Cl⁻ appear on both sides;

Hence, the net ionic equation is:

[tex]\mathbf{2Ni^{2+}_{(aq)}+2S^{2-}_{(aq)} \to 2NiS_{(s)}}[/tex]
