In a double displacement equation, like... Ni(NO3)2(aq)+Na2CO3(aq)--
Do you carry the Na2 subscript to the other side, seeing as Na has a charge of 1+

what are product formed in right hand side do u know??

chmvijay · Answer

it depends on the compound formed and its  counter anion charge

chmvijay · Answer

2NaNO3 is formed on the right side and not Na2

anonymous · Answer

No, you do not need to carry the subscript to the right hand side.Since Na has a charge of +1 and NO3 has a charge of -1, the ions will become neutral when the compound NaNO3 is created.
