Nitrate has more oxygen, as determined by the suffix, ate. If that doesn't make sense, try page 225 of your Modern Chemistry textbook.

Isomers have different physical and chemical properties.


How may a chemical formula differ from an empirical formula?

CH2O = Empirical formula for carbohydrates. The ratios of the diggerent atoms are shown here and with a skeleton formula. C6H12O6 - Glucose, the actual carbohydrate with a full elemental complement.


What are minerals considered to be?

A mineral has a fixed chemical composition, and crystal format. Sometimes we may have two minerals with the same chemical formula - e.g. calcite and aragonite, but differ in crystallization.


What is the chemical formula for natural flavors?

A natural flavorant is flavor additive derived from the natural source of which it is flavored. Since all flavors are complex and differ from one another there is no one chemical formula to describe all of them. The chemical compound of vanilla may be similar to other flavors, but it is completely unique to itself. Artificial flavorant will have the same chemical formula as the natural flavor it is mimicking.


How does rock salt differ from the kitchen salt?

The chemical formula unit is the same: NaCl; rock salt (halite) in the mine is more impure.


Why do geometrical isomers differ in their physical and chemical properties?

Isomers differ in their structural formulas. For example, the chemical formula for the simple sugars glucose, fructose, and galactose is C6H12O6, but their structural formulas are different, which gives them different properties. Glucose, fructose, and galactose are isomers of one another.


What symptoms can chemical exposure cause?

What is molecular formula for fructose?

Fructose or fruit Sugar (also levulose or laevulose) is a 6-carbon polyhydroxyketone. It is an isomer of glucose, meaning both have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6), but they differ structurally. Glucose is an aldehyde i.s.o. ketone.For structural formula cf. 'Related links'


Why dont compounds differ from mixtures?

Compounds differ from mixtures; the chemical composition is different !


Each mineral has a different formation?

Indeed, each different mineral has a different chemical composition and crystal structure. Sometimes you may have two minerals with the same chemical formula, but which differ in their crystallography. Calcite and Aragonite would be one example. Similarly several different minerals might form face-centred cubes, but differ in their chemistry.
