Non-ionic equation
Spectator IonWhen writing a net ionic equation, these ions found in the original equation are removed.
Spectator Ion
equations that show only the soluble, strong electrolytes reacting (these are represented as ions) and omit the spectator ions, which go through the reaction unchanged.
Net Ionic Equation
An ionic equation is a chemical equation where the electrolytes in aqueous solution are written as dissociated ions.
