Chemical equation writing......
Barium hydroxide and ammonium sulfate react to make an insoluble precipitate of barium sulfate, ammonia and water.
Ba(OH)2(aq) + (NH4)2SO4(aq) --> BaSO4(s) + 2NH3 + 2HOH(l)
It's tempting to write ammonium hydroxide, NH4OH as a product, but there is no molecular ammonium hydroxide in a solution labeled "ammonium hydroxide." There are small amounts of NH4+ and OH- present, just enough to make the solution slightly basic, but there is a great deal more NH3(aq) than there is NH4+.
NH3(aq) + HOH(l) <==> NH4+ + OH- ............... Kb = 1.8x10^-5
The small value of Kb indicates that the equilibrium lies far to the left and NH3 is the predominate species.
Back to the original chemical equation written correctly as an ionic equation:
Ba2+ + 2OH- + 2NH4^+ + SO4^2- --> BaSO4(s) + NH3(aq) + HOH(l)
No spectator ions.
It's unclear what your teacher may be expecting concerning NH4OH. If your teacher expects it to be ionized, then NH4+ and OH- ions are spectator ions. But if your teacher expects it to be "molecular" then there are no spectator ions. The problem is that your teacher shouldn't expect NH4OH at all.
======= Follow up =======
When reading Fooks's answer be sure you understand that there is no NH4OH in solution and it is NOT ionized to form NH4+ and OH- ions. Therefore, NH4+ and OH- CANNOT be spectator ions.
