Joey Bolton · Answer 1

No reaction will occur (option E)

Explanation:

Ionic equation

Al (C2H3O2) 3 (aq) + 3LiNO3 (aq) → Al3 + (aq) + 3C2H3O2 - (aq) + 3Li + (aq) + 3NO - (aq)

Al (C2H3O2) 3 (aq) + 3LiNO3 (aq) → Al3 + (aq) + 3NO - (aq) + 3C2H3O2 - (aq) + 3Li + (aq)

There will be formed any solid prodcut, so no reaction that will occur, thus we can not write an ionic reaction since all the ions gets dissolved in the water and do not form any solid product. This means there will not be formed any ionic equation.
