### Net Ionic Equation for Molecular Equation

**Problem Statement:**
Write the net ionic equation for the following molecular equation.

\[ \text{Ca(NO}_3)_2 (\text{aq}) + (\text{NH}_4)_2 \text{CO}_3 (\text{aq}) \longrightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 (\text{s}) + 2 \text{NH}_4 \text{NO}_3 (\text{aq}) \]

(Use the lowest possible coefficients. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s). If a box is not needed, leave it blank.)

**Diagram Explanation:**

To convert the above molecular equation into a net ionic equation, follow these steps:

1. **Identify the Reactants and Products:**
   - Reactants: 
     - Calcium nitrate (\(\text{Ca(NO}_3)_2 (\text{aq})\))
     - Ammonium carbonate (\((\text{NH}_4)_2 \text{CO}_3 (\text{aq})\))
   - Products:
     - Calcium carbonate (\(\text{CaCO}_3 (\text{s})\))
     - Ammonium nitrate (\(\text{NH}_4 \text{NO}_3 (\text{aq})\))

2. **Write the Dissociation of Aqueous Species:**
   - \(\text{Ca(NO}_3)_2 (\text{aq})\) dissociates into \(\text{Ca}^{2+} (\text{aq})\) and \( 2 \text{NO}_3^- (\text{aq}) \)
   - \((\text{NH}_4)_2 \text{CO}_3 (\text{aq})\) dissociates into \(2 \text{NH}_4^+ (\text{aq})\) and \(\text{CO}_3^{2-} (\text{aq})\)
   - \(\text{NH}_4 \text{NO}_3 (\text{aq})\) dissociates into \(\text{NH}_4^+ (\text{aq})\) and \(\text{NO}_3^- (\text{aq})\)

3. **Remove Spectator Ions:**
   - Spectator ions (ions that appear on both sides of the equation) are \(\text{NH}_4^+ (\text{aq
