  2. Nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate

    The nitrate ion with the partial charges shown. The nitrate anion is the conjugate base of nitric acid, consisting of one central nitrogen atom surrounded by three identically bonded oxygen atoms in a trigonal planar arrangement. The nitrate ion carries a formal charge of −1.

  3. Nitrate test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate_test

    A common nitrate test, known as the brown ring test [2] can be performed by adding iron(II) sulfate to a solution of a nitrate, then slowly adding concentrated sulfuric acid such that the acid forms a layer below the aqueous solution. A brown ring will form at the junction of the two layers, indicating the presence of the nitrate ion. [3]

  4. Alkali metal nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_Metal_Nitrate

    The nitrate ion. Alkali metal nitrates are chemical compounds consisting of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium) and the nitrate ion. Only two are of major commercial value, the sodium and potassium salts. [1] They are white, water-soluble salts with melting points ranging from 255 °C (LiNO 3) to 414 °C (CsNO

  5. Polyatomic ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyatomic_ion

    A simple example of a polyatomic ion is the hydroxide ion, which consists of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom, jointly carrying a net charge of −1; its chemical formula is O H −. In contrast, an ammonium ion consists of one nitrogen atom and four hydrogen atoms, with a charge of +1; its chemical formula is N H + 4.

  6. Standard Gibbs free energy of formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Gibbs_free_energy...

    The standard Gibbs free energy of formation (G f °) of a compound is the change of Gibbs free energy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of a substance in its standard state from its constituent elements in their standard states (the most stable form of the element at 1 bar of pressure and the specified temperature, usually 298.15 K or 25 °C).

  7. Nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrite

    The nitrite ion has the chemical formula NO − 2.Nitrite (mostly sodium nitrite) is widely used throughout chemical and pharmaceutical industries. [1] The nitrite anion is a pervasive intermediate in the nitrogen cycle in nature.

  8. Carbonate nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonate_nitrate

    Hydrotalcite can contain carbonate and nitrate ions between its layers. Magnesium can be substituted by nickel, cobalt or copper. [1] Oxycarbonitrates containing an alkaline earth metal and cuprate and nitrate and carbonate anions in layers, form a family of superconducting materials. [2]

  9. Nitrate radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate_radical

    Nitrogen trioxide or nitrate radical is an oxide of nitrogen with formula NO 3 , consisting of three oxygen atoms covalently bound to a nitrogen atom. This highly unstable blue compound has not been isolated in pure form, but can be generated and observed as a short-lived component of gas, liquid, or solid systems.
