In a chemical equation, the subscript (aq) after a molecule means that it is aqueous. An aqueous solution is a solution in which the solvent is water.
Example: CN-(aq), H2CO3(aq)
It represents that the ionic state is only in the water (solute); Latin 'aqua' is water
It stands for "aqueous", and means it's dissolved in water.

What is the ionic formula for potassium sulfide?
NaNO3(aq) + KCl(aq) ---> NaCl(aq) + KNO3(aq) Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + K+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ----> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + K+(aq) + NO3-(aq) NO NIE since they are all spectator ions it is soluble in water and no precipitate forms, there is no net ionic equation
What is the abbreviation for solid?
In a chemical equation it it '(s)'. e.g. 2HCl(aq) + CaCO3(s) = CaCL2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) (aq) = aqueous (water based solution). (s) = solid (l) = liquid (g) = gas
