How is the Nitrate Ion (NO3) formed? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
5 I understand how the nitrite $\ce {NO2}$ ion can be formed and have a negative charge, but the nitrate $\ce {NO3}$ ion is confusing me. I made some simple drawings to try to explain what I …
Are all NO3- salts soluble in water? If so, why?
Jun 4, 2015 · All the examples of $\ce {NO3-}$ salts are soluble in water (all that I know about). Is it always so or there is some salt which doesn't dissolve in water? If so what is the reason …
Which has the greater N–O bond length, NO₂⁻ or NO₃⁻?
Nov 18, 2018 · For the nitrate ion (NO3-), there is one double bond that leads to resonance amongst all three of the nitrogen-oxygen bonds. This effectively gives each bond the …
Where does the extra electron come from in the Lewis Dot …
Dec 11, 2014 · Unfortunately your Lewis structure for the nitrate ion, $\ce {NO3-}$, is wrong. You did not include any charges and as it is an ion there is at least one. Let's first have a look at …
What is the oxidation state of nitrogen in nitrate ion and what is its ...
Jan 30, 2015 · The $\ce {NO3-}$ ion cannot be depicted using a single Lewis structure. However, its resonance structures are shown below: What this means is that the actual structure of the …
Why isn't O=N-O-O the best lewis structure for NO3-?
Apr 30, 2019 · 0 I'm practicing lewis structures and I'm stuck on the one for NO3 -1 (nitrate ion). I understand that N has to be the central atom because it is the least electronegative, but I'm …
inorganic chemistry - Why is it wrong to draw the Lewis structure …
Jun 5, 2022 · 0 When drawing for example the Lewis structure of nitrate ion (NO3)^-1 whould it be wrong to draw nitrogen and oxygen separately and then try to figure out the structure of the …
inorganic chemistry - Delocalization of π-electrons in nitrate ion ...
Dec 18, 2014 · Benzene and nitrate ion are given in my textbook as examples for the delocalization of π-electrons. Benzene, due to symmetry of its resonating structures, is simple …
Why do we have to prevent the hydrolysis of iron(III) nitrate?
May 16, 2023 · I want to make particular concentration of ferric ions from $\\ce{Fe(NO3)3.9H2O}$, and then I found this video It says that we have to add nitric acid to prevent iron from …
Balancing a chemical reaction with oxidation numbers
Feb 1, 2022 · Much easier to balance Cu + 4 HNO3 = Cu [NO3]2 +2NO2 +2 H2O when one knows what nitric acid and nitrate ion are. If the actual reaction is a consecutive series and one …
