HNO3 is a chemical that has 1 hydrogen atom (HNO3), 1 nitrogen atom (H N O3) and 3 oxygen atoms (HN O3). If the queston meant what chemical HNO3 stood for, then the answer is nitric acid.

WOuldn't it be call Nitrous acid? Since it is a Oxy acid..... ite----- turns to ous. just a suggestion.

HNO3 is called Hydrogen Nitrate or Bi Nitrate.

A slippery substance that turns red litmus paper blue when mixed with water?

Many compounds dissolved in water will turn blue litmus red, since this indicates that the solution is acidic. For example, acid rain is formed by carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide dissolving in rain water.

What are the 6 steps of the nitrogen cycle?

Step 1: Nitrogen-fixation Atmospheric: Happens when Nitrogen (N2) is oxidized at high temperatures (by lightning, in internal combustion engines) to make nitrite (NO2). This can combine with water to form nitric acid (H2NO3), which is deposited on earth through rainfall. Biological: Done by bacteria which can convert N2 into ammonia (NH3) if an energy source is present. Some get this energy by directly absorbing sunlight (blue-green algae) or by living in the roots of plants (legumes, alder trees), who provide them with food (Rhizobium, Azospirillium). Step 2: Conversion to Ammonia. As amino acids and nucleic acids require N in the form of Ammonia, if nitrate (NO3) present, it must be converted to NH3. This is done through Nitrate reductase enzymes. Step 3: Biological Use. Ammonia is incorporated into proteins, nucleic acids Step 4: When organism dies, ammonia is relased back into the biosphere through the process of Ammonification, in which water is added to proteins to make carbon dioxide and ammonia. This process happens during digestion, and is also done by bacterial and fungal decomposers. Step 5: If ammonia released into oxygen rich (anerobic) soil, other bacteria can convert it into nitrite or nitrate through the process of Nitrification: NH4+ + 2O2 = NO3- + H2O + 2H. This is a problem, as it gives the molecule which contains Nitrogen a negative charge, which repels it from soil particles, causing it to be easily leached into streams and groundwater. Step 6: If soils remain anerobic, another group of poop will convert it back into inert, atmospheric N2 through the process of Denitrification. In this process, bacteria use nitrate as an Oxygen source for respiration: C6H12O6 + 4NO3- = 6CO2 + 6H2O + 2N2 AND THE SPACE UNICORN WILL SAVE US ALL!! XD
