Aluminum nitrate is a slightly acidic salt.
Aluminum nitrate is slightly acidic because the hydrated aluminum ion, Al(H2O)63+ is slightly acidic. It dissociates according to the following equation. Al(H2O)63+ --> H+ + Al(H2O)5OH2-.
The salt formed when you mix aluminum oxide and nitric acid is aluminum nitrate. Aluminum oxide reacts with nitric acid to form aluminum nitrate and water.
Lead Nitrate is the salt of a strong acid (nitric acid) and a weak base (lead (II) or lead (IV) hydroxide). Salts like these are somewhat acidic so lead nitrate (regardless of the oxidation state of lead) is an acid.
When aluminum metal reacts with nitric acid, it produces aluminum nitrate, nitrogen dioxide gas, and water. This reaction is exothermic and can be violent if concentrated nitric acid is used.
Ali3 is a base, specifically aluminum hydroxide.

The solutions of ferric nitrate in water are acidic, because ferric hydroxide is a weak base while nitric acid is a strong acid.
Lead Nitrate is the salt of a strong acid (nitric acid) and a weak base (lead (II) or lead (IV) hydroxide). Salts like these are somewhat acidic so lead nitrate (regardless of the oxidation state of lead) is an acid.
Acid: HNO3 (Nitric Acid) Base: LiOH (Lithium Hydroxide) HNO3 + LiOH --> LiNO3 + H2O
When aluminum metal reacts with nitric acid, it produces aluminum nitrate, nitrogen dioxide gas, and water. This reaction is exothermic and can be violent if concentrated nitric acid is used.
Ali3 is a base, specifically aluminum hydroxide.
Aluminum hydroxide is a base, while nitric acid is a acid (obviously). Therefore, they would cause a neutralization reaction, which form water and a salt. The equation would look like this:Al(OH)3 + 3HNO3 -> 3H2O + Al(NO3)3
Sodium Nitrate is a salt, the product of the reaction of an acid with a base. For instance, Sodium Hydroxide plus Nitric Acid would form the salt Sodium Nitrate and Water. NaOH + HNO3 = NaNO3 + H2O
it is a salt but behaves as Lewis acid in so many chemical reactios......
Being the conjugate base of nitric acid (a strong acid), the nitrate ion is a weak base.
Potassium nitrate salt is neither a base nor an acid. the nitrate ion is a conjugate base of a strong acid (nitric acid). It will not hydrolyse in solution to produce OH- ions.
