There are three main steps for writing the net ionic equation for KOH FeCl3 = KCl Fe(OH)3 (Potassium hydroxide Iron (III) chloride). First, we balance the molecular equation. Second, we write the states and break the soluble ionic compounds into their ions (these are the strong electrolytes with an (aq) after them). Finally, we cross out any spectator ions. These are the ions that appear on both sides of the ionic equation. If you are unsure if a precipitate will be present when writing net ionic equations, you should consult a solubility table for the compound. Another option to determine if a precipitate forms is to have memorized the solubility rules. In this reaction, Fe(OH)3 will be insoluble and will be a precipitate (solid) and fall to the bottom of the test tube. We therefore write the state symbol (s) after the compound that precipitates out of solution. If you are unsure if a compound is soluble when writing net ionic equations you should consult a solubility table for
