SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on deriving the full and net ionic equations for three chemical reactions: NaClO with HCl, NaOH with HClO, and FeI3 with KOH. The correct net ionic equations are NaClO(aq) + 2H+(aq) → Cl2(aq) + Na+(aq) + H2O(l) for the first reaction, Na+(aq) + ClO-(aq) + H+(aq) → NaClO(aq) + H2O(l) for the second, and Fe3+(aq) + 3OH-(aq) → Fe(OH)3(s) for the third. The participants struggled with identifying the correct net ionic equations despite providing the full molecular equations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of aqueous solutions and solubility rules
  • Knowledge of ionic compounds and their dissociation in water

Can someone tell me the full formula and net ion equation for these? I can't seem to get them right even thought I think my answers are right.

a.NaClO(aq) + HCl(aq) →
( I got NaClO(aq) + 2HCl(aq) -> Cl2(aq) + NaCl(s) + H2O(l) but it won't accept my answer, so no idea of net equation.)

b. NaOH(aq) + HClO(aq) →
(The formula is NaOH(aq) + HClO(aq) → NaClO(aq) + H2O(l) but I can't get the net ionic equation right!)

c. FeI3(aq) + KOH(aq) →
(The formula is FeI3(aq) + 3KOH(aq) → Fe(OH)3(s) + 3KI(aq), but I can't get this net ionic equation right either :(
