How is the Nitrate Ion (NO3) formed? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
I understand how the nitrite NOX2 N O X 2 ion can be formed and have a negative charge, but the nitrate NOX3 N O X 3 ion is confusing me. I made some simple drawings to try to explain what I don't …
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 hydrolysis, what …
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 confused …
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 nitrate ion …
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 is concerned …
Where does the extra electron come from in the Lewis Dot Electron ...
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 how an ion may …
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 enough. We assume …
Electrolysis of aqueous copper (II) nitrate - Chemistry Stack Exchange
There are two copper blocks sitting in the $\\ce{Cu(NO3)2 (aq)}$ solution, a battery is attached onto both of them, providing enough energy to start the reaction. Since solid pieces of copper are
inorganic chemistry - Why is it wrong to draw the Lewis structure of a ...
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 ion? In …
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 behind it?
