    Balance Ionic Net
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on balancing the net ionic equation for the reaction between barium chloride and sodium fluoride, which forms a precipitate of barium fluoride. The initial equation presented is incorrect, as it does not properly represent the reactants and products. Participants emphasize the need to identify the ions involved in the reaction to formulate the net ionic equation. The correct approach involves separating the soluble compounds into their respective ions and focusing on the formation of the precipitate. Understanding these concepts is crucial for accurately completing the homework assignment.

Homework Statement


Aqueous solutions of barium chloride and sodium fluoride are mixed to form a precipitate of barium fluoride.


Homework Equations



i'm not sure but i put.
BaCl + NaF = BaF2 + NaCl2


The Attempt at a Solution



I'm pretty much confused whether you balance the equation. Also I'm not sure when the net equation is completed. Please help.

Besides, you are asked for net ionic, so far you have not tried to look at ions.
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
