How do I write out the Net Ionic equation for this reaction? And what is the balanced equation for this reaction?

Thanks,

I just dont understand at all how to go about explaining the answer, I know that I would need the moles of products to deduce the empirical formula but if I have the molarity of one of the reactants but have no K equilibrium value, I cant get the moles of products correct?

Thanks,

It is a redox reaction and write balance equation  using rules for balnacing redox reaction...you need to balance the charges as well as atoms.After writing the balance equations just check if you have any spectator ions i.e. ions which are not undergoing any change

Molarity can be converted into moles and you know molarity of the solutions after titrations.

I don't see why you need the equilibrium constant, but it seems to me that you need the molecular formula of oxalic acid.  Because I deal with carbon so much, I like to assign oxidation numbers to carbon and count electrons, but that's just me.
