spectator ions are: Na and NO3
Spectator ions, in a chemical reaction, are ions that don't take part in the overall reaction. For instance, consider the following reaction:Pb2+ (aq) + 2 NO3 (aq) + 2 K+(aq) + 2 I-(aq) ---> PbI2(s) + 2 K+(aq) + 2 NO3-(aq)The bolded and italicized compounds are spectator ions. They do not play an active role in the reaction. So, when these spectator ions are removed, we end up with a net ionic equation:Pb2+(aq) + 2 I-(aq) ---> PbI2(s)Source: College student in Chemistry, wrote these examples out of the book.
An acid solution is a solution that contains more hydronium (H3O+) ions than hydroxide (OH-) ions. On the other hand, the reverse is true for a basic solution. Acidic solutions will have a pH less than 7 whereas basic solutions will have a pH greater than 7 by the equation pH=-log[H3O+].
Ag+ (aq) + SCN- (aq) ----> AgSCN (s)
when the acid reacts with the base ,the H+ ions are given out from the acid and OH- ions from the base. they react together to form water and the residue salt is also produced. when all the number of H+ ions react with the appropriate number of OH- ions,they neutralize each other. for example: when certain amount of hydrochloric acid is added to sodium carbonate(base),they neutralize each other and water and salt(sodium chloride ,in this case) is given out.
Alkaline. Like Calcium Hydroxide, Potassium Hydroxide, etc.

Add a solution of magnesium chloride; magnesium hydroxide is not soluble in water.

An ionic equation can be solved by: 1)Writing and balancing the given equation (if necessary) eg: 2Na(s)+2HCl(aq) --> 2NaCl(aq)+H2(g) 2) Split the ions (only ions that are aqueous are split) eg: 2Na(s)+2H(aq)+2Cl(aq) -->2Na(aq)+2Cl(aq)+H2(g) 3) Cancel the spectator ions(spectator ions are ions which remain in their original state after the chemical reaction) eg: 2Na(s)+2H+2Cl(aq) --> 2Na(aq)+2Cl(aq)+H2(g) 4)Write the balanced ionic equation: eg:2Na(s)+2H(aq) -->2Na(aq)+H2(g)
2AgC2H3O2 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) -> 2AgCl2 (s) + Ca(C2H3O2)2 (aq) 2Ag1+ (aq) + 2C2H3O21- (aq) + Ca2+(aq) + 2Cl1- (aq) -> 2AgCl2 (s) + Ca2+ (aq) + 2C2H3O21- (aq) In the reaction, both acetate (C2H3O2) and Calcium are aqueous in both the reactants and products, therefore they are the spectator ions.
K+ and SO42-
Add a sodium hydroxide solution; copper and magnesium hydroxides are insoluble. Strontium hydroxide is low soluble.
The corresponding reaction to the equilibrium is; H2O(l) <-> H+(aq) + OH-(aq) or another interpretation is; 2H2O(l) <-> H3O+(aq) + OH-(aq)
