Ionic and net ionic equations

Post by 2azriel »

Im very confused. Please help. I feel this is still wrong and Im not sure where Iv gone off the tracks

ammonium phosphate and aluminium sulphate need the molecular, ionic and net ionic

Molecular equation:
(NH4)3PO4 + Al2(SO4)3 → (NH4)SO42(aq) + AIPO4(s)

Ionic equation:
6NH4+ + 2PO43- + 2Al3+ + 3SO42- → 2AlPO4 + 6NH4+ + 3SO42-

Net ionic:
AI+3 +PO4-3 → AlPO4


thanks for any help

Here is the balanced equation:

Code: Select all

 2 (NH4)3PO4 + Al2(SO4)3 = 3 (NH4)2SO4 + 2 AlPO4

Al{3+} + PO4{3-} = AlPO4(s)
