Molecular, total ionic and net-ionic equation for potassium hydroxide and ammonium iodide
Potassium hydroxide = KOH Ammonium iodide = NH4I
Molecular equation: KOH + NH4I KI + NH4OH
Both NH4+ and K+ salts are soluble.NH4I dissociates into NH4+ and I-. KOH dissociates into K+ and OH-.
Ionic equation: NH4+(aq) + I-(aq) + K+(aq) + OH-(aq) NH3 + H2O + K+(aq) + I-(aq)
K+ and I- appear on both sides of the reaction, so they are spectators and not part of the net ionic equation.
Net-ionic equation: NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq) NH3 + H2O
