when aqueous solutions of sodium hypochlorite and nitric acid are mixed, an aqueous solution of sodium nitrate and hypochlorous acid results. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction.

Sagot :

Answer:

H+ (aq)  +    ClO- (aq)  --->   HClO(aq)  

Explanation:

The net ionic reaction equation is a chemical equation that explicitly shows only the particular ions that undergo a chemical change in the course of a given reaction.

In this particular reaction, the molecular reaction equation is shown as follows;

HNO3(aq) + NaOCl(aq) -----------> NaNO3(aq) + HOCl(aq)

Ionically;

H+ (aq)  +    ClO- (aq)  --->   HClO(aq)
