Identify the net ionic equation for the reaction (if any) that occurs when aqueous solutions of K₂S and Fe(NO₃)₂ are mixed. A) K⁺(aq) + NO₃^-(aq) → KNO₃(s) B) Fe²⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) → FeS(s) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) C) Fe²⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2NO₃^-(aq) → Fe²⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) + 2KNO₃(s) D) Fe²⁺(aq) + S^2-(aq) → FeS(s) E) No reaction occurs.

The net ionic equation is Fe(SO4)2(aq) + H2S(aq) → FeS(s) + 2H+(aq) + 2SO4 2-(aq) since K₂S and Fe(NO₃)₂ do not react with each other. The balanced equation is: K2S(aq) + FeSO4(aq) → FeS(s) + K2SO4(aq)
