Give the net ionic equation for the reaction (if any) that occurs when aqueous solutions of lithium sulfide and copper (II) nitrate are mixed.

S²⁻(aq) + Cu²⁺(aq) ⇒ CuS(s)

Explanation:

Let's consider the molecular equation that occurs when aqueous solutions of lithium sulfide and copper (II) nitrate are mixed.

Li₂S(aq) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ 2 LiNO₃(aq) + CuS(s)

The complete ionic equation includes all the ions and the species that do not dissociate in water.

2 Li⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq) + Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) ⇒ 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) + CuS(s)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the species that do not dissociate in water.

S²⁻(aq) + Cu²⁺(aq) ⇒ CuS(s)

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
