spectator ions
These ions are called "spectator" ions.
(Apex) Ions that do not participate in the reaction
I don't know the answer to number 3. Pedro, Danny, and me are wondering what the answer for number 3 is. Any psychics please help us before dooms day.
Apex;) Ions that are not changed in the reaction
Constituent Ions are Spectator Ions. Spectator Ions are ions that appear on both sides of the chemical equation. (Spectator Ions appear as both reactants and as products). They do not participate in the reaction and they are NOT shown in the Net Ionic Equation.
A precipitation reaction is usually a double displacement reaction. The ions that do not form the precipitate usually form the solution.

spectator ions in a double replacement reaction
Ions that appear on both sides of the equation are spectator ions. These ions do not participate in the reaction at all. Thus, they are omitted when writing the net ionic formula of a reaction.

A spectator ion is an ion which does not participate in a reaction. Zn(s) + H2SO4 (aq) -----> ZnSO4 (aq) + H2 (g) That is the equation. The Zn goes from a solid to aqeous therefore it reacted. The Hydrogen in H2SO4 went from (aq) to (g) therefore it reacted. The SO4 however went from (aq) to (aq) and therefore didn't react and is therefore a spectator ion.
it produces ammonia (NH3) and water; the nitrate and sodium ions are spectator ions and do not participate in the reaction. Hence, ionic equation: NH4+ + OH- -> NH3 + H2O
the acid reacts with basis in a neutralization reaction in which the hydrogen ions donated by an acid react with the hydroxide ions donated by the base product a neutral product called water which is a reason why this reaction is known as a neutralization reaction =P
An acid-base reaction.

Carbonic acid. The reaction is: H2O + CO2 -----> H2CO3 ----> H+ + HCO3- The reaction is catalysed by an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase. After it has formed it separates (dissociates) into hydrogen ions (H+) and hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO3-).
