WRITING IONIC AND NET IONIC EQUATIONS FOR AN ACID–BASE REACTION
Write both an ionic equation and a net ionic equation for the neutralization reaction of aqueous HBr and aqueous Ba(OH)_{2}.
STRATEGY
Hydrogen bromide is a strong acid whose aqueous solution contains H^{+} ions and Br^{-} ions. Barium hydroxide is a strong base whose aqueous solution contains Ba^{2+} and OH^{-} ions. Thus, we have a mixture of four different ions on the reactant side. Write the neutralization reaction as an ionic equation, and then cancel spectator ions to give the net ionic equation.
