7.7 Writing <strong>Chemical</strong> Equations for <strong>Reaction</strong>s in Solution:<br />
Complete Ionic and Net Ionic Equations<br />
• To simplify the equation, and to more clearly<br />
show what is happening, spectator ions can be<br />
omitted.<br />
• Equations such as this one, which show only the<br />
species that actually participate in the reaction,<br />
are called net ionic equations.<br />
Ag + (aq) + Cl − (aq) AgCl(s)
