Question

element which reacts with nitric acid forming an other acid which is a strong oxidizing agent

Answer 1

Answer:

Some acids contain other structures that act as stronger oxidizing agents than hydrogen ions. Generally, they contain oxygen in their anionic structure. These include nitric acid, perchloric acid, chloric acid, chromic acid, and concentrated sulfuric acid, among others

Answer 2

Answer:

Nitric acid (HNO3) is one of the most widely used digestion reagents and the most widely used primary oxidant for the decomposition of organic matter. Hot and concentrated HNO3 (16 M and 68%) is a strong oxidizing agent that will liberate trace elements from many materials as highly soluble nitrate salts
