What is the net ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous potassium hydroxide and aqueous nitric acid?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wrote out the equation as such. H(NO3) + K(OH) Double Displacement H(OH) + KNO3 KNO3 would be spectator right? So it would just leave the H(OH). So wouldn't that become H2O?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yes and yes. you also dont have to use the brackets in HNO3 and KOH, those are only used when you have multiple polyatomic ligands.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer would be H20. Ok thank you very much.

OpenStudy (aaronq):

yeah, don't use the zero though, the symbol for oxygen is an uppercase "O" not a "0"
