How are nutirents such as nitrate and phosphate useful to plants if they are not required for photosynthesis to make food?

Plants require nitrates for use with sugar to produce protein. Both nitrates and phosphates are used to create DNA, especially phosphate as it makes up the 'backbone' of the DNA. Phosphate is also needed to create ATP, or usable energy.

What are the nutritive needs of a chlorophyllic plant?
The nutritive solutions are a solution that is rich in mineral substances such like : water-calcium nitrate-potassium nitrate-magnasium sulfate-potassium phosphate-ferric chloride
Are e aerogenes Nitrate negative?
e.aerogenes is nitrate positive after reagents A and B--> A (sulfanilic acid ) and B (naphthylamine) to the incubated bacteria a red color was produced which indicates a that my bacteria does reduce Nitrate to nitrite.

Why are phosphate and nitrate out on a field that has been planted with corn?
Phosphate and nitrate are two of the fertilizers needed to grow corn. Most soils that are farmed have been depleated of their nutrients by years of intensive farming and the removal of organic matter. Thus, one way to make it possible to still grow crops is to provide the crops with the main nutirents they need in chemical form. Phosphate is a chemical that provides phosphorus and nitrate is a chemical that provides nitrogen.
What does sodium phosphate and iron nitrate make?
Aqueous sodium phosphate and aqueous iron nitrate react to produce aqueous sodium nitrate and solid iron phosphate.

Silver phosphate, Ag3PO4 precipitated in potassium nitrate solution (K+ and NO3-)
Which is the better fertilizer-potassium nitrate or potassium phosphate and why?
That depends on what the fertilizer for. Nitrate promotes rapid growth, phosphate promotes other things.

sodium phosphate is Na3PO4 cobalt(II) bromide is CoBr2
What does ammonium phosphate and lead nitrate form?
Lead Phosphate and Ammonium Nitrate. 4 (NH4)3PO4 + 3Pb(NO3)4 ----> Pb3(PO4)4 + 12 NH4NO3
How many moles of silver nitrate would be required to react with 2.00 moles of sodium phosphate?
I assume double displacement reaction. Balanced equation. 3AgNO3 + Na3PO4 -> Ag3PO4 + 3NaNO3 2.00 moles sodium phosphate ( 3 moles AgNO3/1 mole Na3PO4) = 6.00 moles silver nitrate needed =========================
