![### 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](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F25fd4ef3-e3a5-4813-a1c9-b0df42639734%2Faaa0aa3d-0517-4276-824f-158bab39f8fb%2Fi0wogd.png&w=3840&q=75)
