The question is incomplete, the complete question is:
Write the net ionic equation for the below chemical reaction:
(c): [tex]FeCl_3+3NH_4OH\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3+3NH_4CI[/tex]
Answer: The net ionic equation is [tex]Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)[/tex]
Explanation:
Net ionic equation is defined as the equations in which spectator ions are not included.
Spectator ions are the ones that are present equally on the reactant and product sides. They do not participate in the reaction.
(c):
The balanced molecular equation is:
[tex]FeCl_3(aq)+3NH_4OH(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)+3NH_4Cl(aq)[/tex]
The complete ionic equation follows:
[tex]Fe^{3+}(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)+3NH_4^+(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)+3NH_4^+(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)[/tex]
As ammonium and chloride ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.
The net ionic equation follows:
[tex]Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)[/tex]
