Hey there!:
Given reaction:
HCN(aq) + KOH(aq) -----------> H2O(l) + KCN(aq)
Here the HCN is weak acid, so it will be written in the molecule form . So the net ionic reaction is given as :
HCN(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ------------> H2O(l) + CN⁻(aq)
Answer: [tex]H^++OH^-\rightarrow H_2O[/tex]
Explanation:
Neutralization is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base reacts to form salt and water.
Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation or they are ions which are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction present in ionic form.
The given chemical equation is:
[tex]H^++CN^-+K^++OH^-\rightarrow K^++CN^-+H_2O[/tex]
The ions which are present on both the sides of the equation are potassium and cyanide ions. and hence are not involved in net ionic equation.
Hence, the net ionic equation is [tex]H^++OH^-\rightarrow H_2O[/tex]
