KNO3 is an ionic compound. It is written starting with the K+ ion. Next to it is the plus sign. The NO3 structure has a single N atom in the center. To the right is a doubly bonded O atom and to the right and bottom are singly bonded O atoms. The two singly bonded O atoms have six dots, and the doubly bonded has four dots. This structure is bracketed with a 1- superscript.
The reaction is the decomposition of potassium nitrate (KNO3) into potassium nitrite (KNO2) and oxygen (O2) gas. 2 KNO3 → 2 KNO2 + O2.
Yes, KNO2 is ionic. It consists of the potassium ion (K+) and the nitrite ion (NO2-), which are held together by ionic bonds.
Resonance structure.
The Lewis dot structure for germanium (Ge) is: Ge: :Ge:
The Lewis structure of the compound CCLO is as follows: CCCl-O.

Potassium Nitrite
The chemical formula for potassium nitride is K3N.
Yes, KNO2 is ionic. It consists of the potassium ion (K+) and the nitrite ion (NO2-), which are held together by ionic bonds.

The Lewis structure of the compound CCLO is as follows: CCCl-O.
The formal charge of the NCO Lewis structure is zero.
No, not exactly. It is an ionic compound so it would not have a Lewis dot structure. However, the carbonate anion, CO3^2- does have a Lewis dot structure.
KNO2
The molecular geometry of the BR3 Lewis structure is trigonal planar.
The Lewis structure was created by American chemist Gilbert N. Lewis in 1916. Lewis proposed using dots to represent the valence electrons of an atom in order to show how atoms bond together in molecules.
