A spectator ion is an ion that does not take part in the reaction.
If you write out a normal equation. look for something that is the same on both sides and does not change state. This is a spectator ion and can be crossed out of the net ionic equation

What is the molecular complete ionic and net ionic equation for steel wool iron reacting with copper ii sulfate?
molecular equation: CuSO4 (aq)+Fe (s) --> Cu(s) + FeSO4(aq) net ionic equation: Cu2+(aq) + Fe2+ (s) --> Cu2+(s) + Fe2+(aq) spectator ion: Sulfate Ion (SO42-)
Net ionic equation for H20 for NaCN?
NaCN + H2O ---> CN-+ H3O++ Na+ In that equation Na+ is just a spectator ion,, further reaction with water results in: CN- + H2O ---> HCN + OH- thus causing the resulting equation to be basic
NO3 spectator ion or reactant ion?
NO3- is a spectator ion.
What happens when a magnesium ion is attracted to a chlorine ion?
They form an Ionic compound.
What is constituent ions?
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.
Which ions in a total ionic equation are called spectator ionswhy?
In ionic equations the spectator ions are the ions that do not form a solute in the reactants side. They will have the symbol aq (for aqueous or in water)after it showing that is has not precipitated into a solid.
