Covalently bonded, so its a base in water
The conjugate base of HNO2 is NO2-. When HNO2 loses a proton, it forms its conjugate base, nitrite ion (NO2-).
HPO4^2- is an acidic species as it can donate a proton (H+) in solution. NO2, on the other hand, can act as a base by accepting a proton. When mixed together, they can form a reaction where HPO4^2- donates a proton to NO2, leading to the formation of H2PO4^- and NO2^-.
Ka= [H+][NO2-] [HNO2]
HNO2 conjugate acid = one more hydrogen conjugate base = one less hydrogen
The nitrate ion (NO3-) is a so extremely weak base that it will gain no proton at all from water.(That's why HNO3 is a so strong acid that it 'splits' off ALL its protons. in water there is no molecule HNO3 remaining.)
NO2 is not a base. It is a nitrogen dioxide molecule which can act as an acidic gas when dissolved in water, forming nitric acid.

Potassium Nitrate is a salt
H2O is water NO2 is nitrogen dioxide they can react together in the atmosphere to form acid rain 2NO2 + H2O = HNO3 + HNO2 H2O is water NO2 is nitrogen dioxide they can react together in the atmosphere to form acid rain 2NO2 + H2O = HNO3 + HNO2
Ca(NO2)2, or calcium nitrite, is considered a salt rather than a strong acid or base. It is formed from the reaction of a strong base (calcium hydroxide) and a weak acid (nitrous acid). In solution, it can exhibit some basic properties due to the presence of nitrite ions, which can react with water to produce hydroxide ions. However, it is not classified as a strong base.
The name for NO2 is nitrogen dioxide. It is a reddish-brown gas with a sharp, acrid odor and is an important air pollutant contributing to smog and acid rain.
HNO2 => H^(+) & NO2^(-) are the ions present. NOTE Nitrous acid is ' HNO2' ; Nitric Acid is HNO3 .
Here are the four general acid reactions. Acid + Base = Salr + Water Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soliuble base.
