The geometry of the nitrate ion (NO₃⁻) is trigonal planar. This shape arises from the arrangement of three oxygen atoms around the central nitrogen atom, with bond angles of approximately 120 degrees. The nitrate ion has resonance structures, which contribute to its stability and equal bond lengths between nitrogen and the oxygen atoms.
