Would nitrate reduction occur more often in the presence or absence of a molecular oxygen?

Nitrate reduction occurs in some facultative anarobes, nitrate is used as a terminal electron acceptor under (anaerobic) conditions, this carries off nitrate respiration. So in other words nitrate reduction does not happen in the precense of oxygen because then oxygen would be used instead of nitrogen as an electron acceptor.

What is molecular formula for silver nitrate?
The molecular formula of silver nitrate is AgNO3. Silver nitrate is extensively used in analytical chemistry as a reagent. You can take silver nitrate solution in a beaker and electrolyze it to get silver in the negative potential.
What does dermal nitrate test for?
In forensics, the dermal nitrate test detects the presence of unburned gunpowder and nitrate residue on the hands of a suspect.
Ammonium nitrate polarity?
It is considered an Ionic bond. Ammonium donates an electron and nitrate accepts an electron. By itself, ammonium ion is a molecular compound and the nitrate ion is a molecular compound, but when combined they are considered to be ionic. Only molecular compounds can be covalent bonded and are designated: covalent, polar, or nonpolar. The difference between polar and nonpolar depends on the difference of electronegativities of the atoms present.
