States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
So I have figured out the right balanced equation in the first picture but I cannot figure out the net ion equation. I know that I do not include the spectator ions in a net ionic equation and to me the spectator ions would be the hydroxide ions (if Al(OH)3 dissociated in water) and the H+ ions but since aluminum hydroxide does not dissociate then it must be included in the net ion equation as Al(OH)3 so I would think that the net ion equation would be
Al(OH)3(s) + 3Cl-(aq) -> AlCl3(aq)
but that was the first thing I tried and it was wrong, so I tried adding in the 3H2O that gets made but that was wrong, so I added in the H+ ions and that still wasn't right, I cannot see where I am going wrong here. Please help!
