Does a reaction occur when an aqueous solution of calcium iodide and sodium sulfate are combined. if a reaction does occur write the net ionic equation.

Yes. Ca²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ CaSO₄(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible reaction is

CaI₂ + Na₂SO₄ ⟶ CaSO₄ + 2NaI

To predict a reaction, you must know the solubility rules.

The important ones for this question are

Molecular equation

CaI₂(aq) + Na₂SO₄(aq) ⟶ CaSO₄(s) + 2NaI(aq)

Ionic equation

Ca²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq) + 2Na²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ CaSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq)

Net ionic equation

Cancel all ions that appear on both sides of the reaction arrow (underlined).

Ca²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq) + 2Na²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ CaSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq)

The net ionic equation is

Ca²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ CaSO₄(s)

nacl is added to the aqueous of what? ? in order to get a proper answer you have to specify the exact composition of the aqueous solution.
