trigonal bipyramidal
16
The oxidation number of nitrogen in the nitrate ion NO3- is 5
It is a tetrahedral structured ion, the central nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized.
The geometry of the molecule actually determines number of electron pairs on the central atom. The electron pairs will be arranged in such a way to minimize the repulsion and therefore, have the lowest possible energy.
It is a trigonal planar structure - the nitrogen atom in the center.
Nitrate ion: NO3-
The ion name for NO3 is nitrate.
The nitrate ion (NO3-) is colorless.
The nitrite ion has one less oxygen atom.
The correct formula for nitrate ion is (NO_3^-). It carries a charge of -1.
Nitrate: NO3-
The symbol for the nitrate ion is NO3-.
The polyatomic ion in KNO3 (potassium nitrate) is NO3- , the nitrate ion. This ion is polyatomic because it contains four atoms bonded together. The nitrate ion is derived from nitric acid, HNO3.
The formula for the oxide ion is O2- and the formula for the nitrate ion is NO3-.
The formula for the nitrate ion is NO3^-1. The charge for the nitrate ion is -1. The formula for Mg^2+ is Mg2+. The charge for the magnesium ion is +2.
The name for the compound formed from aluminum and nitrate ion is aluminum nitrate.
