The nitrate and the natrium ions.

Explanation:

$N a_{2} C O_{3} (a q) + 2 A g N O_{3} (a q) \to A g_{2} C O_{3} (s) ⏐ ↓ + 2 N a N O_{3} (a q)$ $Na_2CO_3(aq) + 2AgNO_3(aq) rarr Ag_2CO_3(s)darr + 2NaNO_3(aq)$

The net ionic equation is:

$2 A g^{+} + C O_{3}^{2 -} \to A g_{2} C O_{3} (s) ⏐ ⏐ ↓$ $2Ag^(+) + CO_3^(2-) rarr Ag_2CO_3(s)darr$

Any ion pair with $(a q)$ $(aq)$ symbol are the $aquated ions$ $"aquated ions"$ ; i.e. $N a N O_{3} (a q) \equiv N a^{+} (a q) + N O_{3}^{-} (a q)$ $NaNO_3(aq)-=Na^(+)(aq) + NO_3^(-)(aq)$ .

$N a^{+} (a q)$ $Na^(+)(aq)$ could also be represented as ${[N a {(O H_{2})}_{6}]}_{6}^{+}$ $[Na(OH_2)_6]^+$ .
