Is ammonium nitrate an oxidizer?

Yes, ammonium nitrate is an oxidizer. It can release oxygen when heated, making it a potential source of oxygen for combustion reactions.


Would magnesium react with calcium nitrate?

no, it wouldn't calcium is above magnesium in the reactivity series which means that magnesium can't oxidize calcium. calcium can oxidize magnesium so calcium would react with magnesium nitrate with formation of metallic magnesium and calciumnitrate.


What is Ammonium nitrate validity as explosive?

Ammonium nitrate is not explosive, it is an effective oxidizer. Mix it with a fuel and you have explosive.


What are the differences between calcium ammonium nitrate and ammonium nitrate, and how do these differences impact their effectiveness as fertilizers?

Calcium ammonium nitrate contains calcium in addition to ammonium nitrate, while ammonium nitrate does not. The presence of calcium in calcium ammonium nitrate helps to improve soil structure and nutrient uptake by plants. This makes calcium ammonium nitrate a more effective fertilizer compared to ammonium nitrate alone.


Is calcium nitrate a metal?

No. Calcium nitrate is an ionically bonded salt.


How many moles of a nitrate ion are in 2.50 moles calcium nitrate?

Calcium Nitrtae is Ca(NO3)2 and so there are two moles of nitrate per mole of calcium nitrate. Thus there are 2 x 2.50 = 5.0 moles of nitrate present.


What would calcium nitrate react with?

francium ceasium Potassium Sodium Lithium These metals could react with calcium nitrate in a displacement reaction as they are more reactive. e.g. pottasium + calcium nitrate -> calcium + pottasium nitrate.


What is the chemical formula calcium nitrate?

The chemical formula of calcium nitrate is Ca(NO3)2.


How many ions present in calcium nitrate?

The calcium ion is Ca2+ and the nitrate ion is NO3- and together they form Ca(NO3)2


How do you get potassium nitrate out of a mixture with calcium carbonate?

calcium carbonate+ nitric acid. a strong acid would replace a weaker acid in most ionic compounds, so you would produce calcium nitrate and carbon dioxide. well, being that nitric acid is widely UNAVAILABLE to most people, it is easy to find potassium or sodium nitrate. if you are going specifically for calcium nitrate you can double displace calcium carbonate with potassium or sodium nitrate resulting in potassium or sodium carbonate and (aq) calcium nitrate. the potassium or sodium carbonate will probably precipitate out much quicker than the nitrate depending on how exact your equation for displacement is. and you should be left with (aq) calcium nitrate. boil off the water and preferably recrystallize for purity. if youre using calcium carbonate just to get any form of nitrate, i recommend simply buying potassium nitrate. if it is not assessable in your area and are trying to get an oxidizer ( i assume thats why you are trying to make a nitrate) i recommend going with a chlorate or perchlorate, these are easier to make at home through electrolysis.


Is calcium nitrate and element or a compound?

Calcium nitrate is a compound: Ca(NO3)2.


What two chemicals together create calcium nitrate?

Calcium nitrate is typically created by combining nitric acid with calcium carbonate or calcium hydroxide. This reaction results in the formation of calcium nitrate, water, and carbon dioxide.
