Molecular, ionic, and net ionic equations for ammonium chloride + potassium sulfate. Also what is the observation.

Is it 2NH2Cl + Na2SO4 = (NH4)2SO4 + 2NaCl????

Please help!

Not quite.
ammonium chloride is NH4Cl.
potassium sulfate is K2SO4.

Is this a trick question. There is no reaction, just a mixing of the ions. Is this an aqueous solution?

If solids:
NH4Cl(s) + K2SO4(s) ==> No reaction

If aqueous solutions:
NH4Cl(aq) + K2SO4(aq) ==>NH4^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq) + 2K^+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
The latter is the ionic as well as the net ionic equation if the salts are in aqueous solution.
