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.
