Question

Give the net ionic equation for the reaction (if any) that occurs when aqueous solutions of Al(C2H3O2)3 and LiNO3 are mixed. A) Al3 (aq) 3 NO3 - (aq) → Al(NO3)3(s) B) Li (aq) C2H3O2 - (aq) → LiC2H3O2(s) C) Al3 (aq) 3 NO3 - (aq) Li (aq) C2H3O2 - (aq) → Al(NO3)3(aq) LiC2H3O2(s) D) 3 Li (aq) (C2H3O2)3 3- (aq) → Li3(C2H3O2)3 (s) E) No reaction occurs

Answer 1

No reaction will occur ( option E)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ionic equation

Al(C2H3O2)3 (aq) + 3LiNO3(aq) → Al3+ (aq) + 3C2H3O2- (aq) + 3Li+ (aq) + 3NO- (aq)

Al(C2H3O2)3 (aq) + 3LiNO3(aq) → Al3+ (aq) + 3NO-(aq) + 3C2H3O2- (aq) + 3Li+ (aq)

There will be formed any solid prodcut, so no reaction that will occur, thus we can not write an ionic reaction since all the ions gets dissolved in the water and do not form any solid product. This means there will not be formed any ionic equation.
