Question

Write the net ionic equation describing the dissociation of acetic acid in aqueous solution

Answer 1

HC2H3O2  yields  H^+  +  C2H3O2^-

Answer 2

The net ionic equation describing the dissociation of acetic acid in aqueous solution is H⁺ + H₂O →  H₃O⁺.

What is net ionic equation?

Net ionic equation is that equation in which all entities are present in the ions form but spectator ions are not involved in this reaction.

Chemical reaction between acetic acid in aqueou solution i.e. water will be represented as:
CH₃COOH + H₂O → CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

Now we write all te entities in the ions forms, we get

CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺ + H₂O → CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

Here CH₃COO⁻ is a spectator ion, so the net ionic equation will be represented as:

H⁺ + H₂O →  H₃O⁺

Hence the net ionic equation is H⁺ + H₂O →  H₃O⁺.
