Update 7/6/2012:
Molecular Equation:
H3PO4(aq) + 3NaOH(aq) [bidirectional arrows] Na3PO4(aq) + 3H2O(l)
Total Ionic Equation:
H3PO4 + 3Na+ + 3OH- [bidirectional arrows] 3Na+ + PO43- + 3H2O
Net Ionic Equation:
H3PO4 + 3OH- [bidirectional arrows] PO43- + 3H2O
Here, H3PO4 is a weak acid therefore it does not fully dissociate in water. Therefore, when writing the Total Ionic/Net Ionic equations, weak acids don't "split apart" and are kept together. Only strong acids and strong bases fully dissociate (100% ionization) in water. You should memorize the strong acids to help you with Acid-Base reactions (some textbooks say there are 7, others say there are 6).

(Previous response to question below):
Molecular/Ionic Compound Equation:
H3PO4+3NaOH----->Na3PO4+3H2O
Full Ionic Equation (Charges written in parentheses):
H3PO4+3Na(+) + 3OH(-) ------------>3Na(+) +PO4 (3-) +3H2O
Net Ionic Equation:
(H+) + (H3PO4-) + (3OH-) ----------->(PO4 3-) + 3H2O
Notice that the sodium ions are eliminated to make the net ionic equation because they are present in both products and the reactants. Also notice that the charges on each side of the net ionic equation are equal, 3 hydroxide ions, each with a 1- charge on the left, and one phosphate ion with a 3- charge on the right.
3NaOH + H3PO4 ->Na3PO4 +3H2O
H3PO4 + 3NaOH >> Na3PO4 + 3H2O
There is no reaction, therefore no equation!!
CaCl2 + 2H2O so it makes Calcium chloride and water. ==
Calcium hydroxide, a base, will reaction with phenol, a weak acid in a neutralization reaction to give a salt (calcium phenoxide (Ca(PhO-)2) and water.
C25h30n3+ + oh- --> c25h30n3oh
Al + NaOH Um this is the "equation" of aluminum and Sodium Hydroxide... Na2CO3(aq) + NaOH (aq) --> NO reaction Sodium carbonate + Sodium hydroxide yields no visible reaction
There is no reaction, therefore no equation!!
There is no reaction , because of the Common Ion Effect. The Common Ion is the Hydroxide.
CaCl2 + 2H2O so it makes Calcium chloride and water. ==
C25h30n3+ + oh- --> c25h30n3oh
Calcium hydroxide, a base, will reaction with phenol, a weak acid in a neutralization reaction to give a salt (calcium phenoxide (Ca(PhO-)2) and water.
The reaction is the following: H2SO4 + 2NaOH = Na2SO4 + 2H2O
There is no reaction between these, because all species are soluble.
Potassium plus Water gives Potassium Hydroxide plus Hydrogen
Aluminum hydroxide plus hydrochloric acid equals( produces ) aluminum chloride plus water.
No reaction.
Al + NaOH Um this is the "equation" of aluminum and Sodium Hydroxide... Na2CO3(aq) + NaOH (aq) --> NO reaction Sodium carbonate + Sodium hydroxide yields no visible reaction
H+(aq)+OH−(aq)→H2O(l)
