The net ionic equation for the reaction of calcium bromide and sodium phosphate contains which of the following species?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The net ionic equation for the reaction of calcium bromide and sodium phosphate is:
3CaBr2(aq) + 2Na3PO4(aq) → Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6NaBr(aq)
The net ionic equation only includes the species that are involved in the reaction and undergo a chemical change. Therefore, the only species included in the net ionic equation are Ca2+(aq), PO43-(aq), and Ca3(PO4)2(s), which can be combined to give Choice E: 3Ca2+(aq) + 2PO43-(aq) → Ca3(PO4)2(s)
