No. Sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate are two different compounds.
If you mean NaNO2 than its name is Sodium Nitrite, commonly used in the curing and preservation of meats and fishSodium Nitrite
Ammonium nitrate and sodium hydroxide form sodium nitrate, water, and ammonia. NH4NO3 + NaOH --> NaNO3 + NH3 + H2O
Salitre is used in coloring pinoy foods such as the tocino, etc.
Sodium Nitrate... Common names include "Chile saltpeter" or "Peru saltpeter"
The chemical formula for sodium nitrate is NaNO3, and the formula for sodium nitrite is NaNO2. Both are used as food preservatives.Sodium nitrite is a strong oxidizing agent, and slowly oxidizes to sodium nitrate when exposed to air. It is found as a whitish yellow powder. It is very soluble in water.Sodium nitrate is found as a white power and also used as a fertilizer and a rocket propellant. It is soluble in ammonia and most alcohols.These compounds are more similar than they are different. Both are used as a preservative in meat, but concerns have been raised about possible carcinogenic properties.

sodium nitrate ----> sodium nitrite + oxygen
this is because nitrate reductase test using the production of nitrite from nitrate as a measure of nitrate reductase activity
2NaNo3= 3NaNo2 + O2
No. While chemically sodium nitrite is a salt, the salt you eat, table salt, is sodium chloride.
Ammonium nitrate and sodium hydroxide form sodium nitrate, water, and ammonia. NH4NO3 + NaOH --> NaNO3 + NH3 + H2O
NaNO2, NaNO3
2NaNO3 --> 2 NaNO2 + O2
2NaNO3 ==> 2NaNO2 + O2
Salitre is used in coloring pinoy foods such as the tocino, etc.
Type your answer here.. you can analysed nitrite & nitrate on HPLC with C-18 column and methanol : Ammin buffer (30:70) at 210-215 nm. Naredra singh tomar Jiwaji Univ.Gwalior(MP)
