Answer:
(molecular) 3 CaCl₂(aq) + 2 (NH₄)₃PO₄(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄Cl(aq)
(ionic) 3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq)
(net ionic) 3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s)
Explanation:
The molecular equation includes al the species in the molecular form.
3 CaCl₂(aq) + 2 (NH₄)₃PO₄(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄Cl(aq)
The ionic equation includes all the ions (species that dissociate in water) and the species that do not dissociate in water.
3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 NH₄⁺(aq) + 6 Cl⁻(aq)
The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the species that do not dissociate in water. In does not include spectator ions.
3 Ca²⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) ⇄ Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s)
