When solid Ni metal is put into an aqueous solution of Sn(NO3)2, solid Sn metal and a solution of Ni(NO3)2 result. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction.

Ni + Sn^2+ —> Sn + Ni^2+

Explanation:

First let us generate an elemental equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Ni + Sn(NO3)2 —> Sn + Ni(NO3)2

From the equation above, a solid metal Sn is formed.

Now we can generate a net ionic equation as follows:

Ni + Sn^2+ —> Sn + Ni^2+

3 hours because it is a decent distance.
