ZnSO4 + Ba(CH3COO)2 ===> Zn(CH3COO)2 + BaSO4 (molecular)

Zn(+2) + SO4(-2) + Ba(+2) + 2 CH3COO(-) ====>
Zn(+2) + 2 CH3COO(-) + BaSO4 (s) (ionic equation)

Ba(+2) + SO4(-2) =========> BaSO4 (s) (net ionic)

zinc sulfate and barium acetate are both soluble in water, and form ions of Zn+2, Ba+2, SO4-2, and CH3COO-. But Barium sulfate has a low solubility in water, so when they come into contact, they form solid barium sulfate, which precipitates out of solution. The zinc ions and acetate ions remain in solution.
