Give the spectator ions for the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of K₂S and Fe(NO₃)₂ are mixed. A) K⁺and NO₃^- B) Fe²⁺ and K⁺ C) S^2-and NO₃^- D) Fe²⁺and S^2- E) No spectator ions are present.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spectator ions are ions that do not participate in the chemical reaction and remain in solution unchanged. In the reaction between K^+ and NO_3^- from KNO_3 and Fe^2+ from Fe(NO_3)_2, the K^+ and NO_3^- ions are the spectator ions, as they do not change during the reaction.
