The ion nitrate has a trigonal planar structure; see the link below.
The OsbCl3 ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape
the ammoniun ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape. It has four groups of electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom. The fact that the ion has an overall charge does not affect the shape.
The molecular mass of sodium nitrate is 84,9947.
Potassium nitrate is ionic because the "nitrate" is an ion. Nitrate produces a NO3- ion (negitive ion) and the Potassium produces the K+ (positive ion). Thus the ionic designation.Enjoy
Nitrate ion is NO3-1 while Nitride is N-3.
The OsbCl3 ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape
the ammoniun ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape. It has four groups of electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom. The fact that the ion has an overall charge does not affect the shape.
trigonal planar
It is a trigonal planar structure - the nitrogen atom in the center.
The electronic shape is trigonal planar.The molecular shape is bent/angular.
It is considered an Ionic bond. Ammonium donates an electron and nitrate accepts an electron. By itself, ammonium ion is a molecular compound and the nitrate ion is a molecular compound, but when combined they are considered to be ionic. Only molecular compounds can be covalent bonded and are designated: covalent, polar, or nonpolar. The difference between polar and nonpolar depends on the difference of electronegativities of the atoms present.
The nitrate ion is NO3-
Nitrate ion: NO3-
