Solution

In the given reaction:

  1. 2H+(aq) - This is a reactant. It is present on the left side of the equation, which indicates that it is consumed in the reaction.

  2. 2NO3-(aq) - This is a spectator ion. It is present on both sides of the equation, which indicates that it does not participate in the reaction.

  3. Na2CO3(s) - This is a reactant. It is present on the left side of the equation, which indicates that it is consumed in the reaction.

  4. CO2(g) - This is a product. It is present on the right side of the equation, which indicates that it is produced in the reaction.

  5. H2O(l) - This is a product. It is present on the right side of the equation, which indicates that it is produced in the reaction.

  6. 2Na+(aq) - This is a product. It is present on the right side of the equation, which indicates that it is produced in the reaction.

  7. 2NO3-(aq) - This is a spectator ion. It is present on both sides of the equation, which indicates that it does not participate in the reaction.
