1. Balance the equation. That's done.
2. Separate into ions with the following rules.
a. If weak acid or weak base or weak electrolyte (such as H2O), keep as molecule.
b. If solid, keep as molecule.
c. If gas, keep as molecule
d. All others show as ions.
This step gives the complete ionic equation.
3. Cancel ions that appear on both sides of the equation. The result is the NET ionic equation.
4. What is left is the net ionic equation.
