In a SN1 reaction, the nucleophile (in this case, nitrate ion) attacks the carbon atom that is bonded to the leaving group. Since the carbon atom is already bonded to the leaving group, it is not as electronegative as it would be if it were bonded to a hydrogen atom. This makes the carbon atom a less effective nucleophile. In addition, the nitrate ion is a weaker nucleophile than other nucleophiles, such as halide ions, because it is not as electronegative.

WHAT IS TEST REAGENT USED TO IDENTIFY NITRATE ION?
A common test for nitrate ion is with diphenylamine.
What type of reaction occurs between PbNO32 and KI?
Potassium iodide and lead nitrate produces lead iodide and potassium nitrate its a Precipitation Reactions. 2KI+Pb(NO3)2-->PbI2 + 2KNO3
What is a compound composed of lithium and the nitrate polyatomic ion?
Li(N03) is the formula of lithium nitrate, Li+ ion and NO3- ion are combined in this salt (compound)
Is potassium nitrate just potassium plus nitrate?
Technically, yes. Potassium nitrate is a potassium atom attached to the nitrate ion.
Will KBr plus K2SO4 precipitate?
Potassium Chromate precipitates with and coumpnd that contains a cation and NO3, also known as the polyatomic ion Nitrate. Three common examples of this are Zinc Nitrate (Zn(NO3)2) Silver Nitrate (AgNO3) and Baruim Nitrate (Ba(NO3)2)
What are nucleophilic reaction?
A reaction in which a negative ion (nucleophile) attacks on a partially positive carbon atom then reaction is known as nucleophilic reaction, it may be substitution reaction or addition reaction.
Is NO3- a weak base?
Being the conjugate base of nitric acid (a strong acid), the nitrate ion is a weak base.
Formula for nitrate ion?
The nitrate ion is NO3-
What is the forumla of nitrate ion?
Nitrate ion: NO3-
What is the correct formula and charge for an ion of nitrate?
The nitrate ion is NO3-
How does the nitrate ion differ from the nitrate ion?
The nitrite ion has one less oxygen atom.
What's the difference in indicator and reagent?
Indicator will changes the colour according to H+ ion present in a solution. Reagent : consist of electrophile and nucleophile. It help in the attachment of nucleophile to the electrophile and electrophile to the nucleophile. Mirza
What is the ion of a nitrate?
Nitrate: NO3-
Is potasium nitrate ionic or covalent?
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
Is NH4NO3 N2O H2O a disproportionation reaction?
This is a thermal decomposition reaction.
What is the difference between the nitrate ion and the nitride ion?
Nitrate ion is NO3-1 while Nitride is N-3.
What is name of the polyatomic ion of each compound of KNO3?
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.
