Explanation:
Sodium nitrate features an ionic bond between one Na+ ion and one NO3– ion. The structure of a NaNO3 molecule is illustrated below.
Sodium Nitrate Structure
The nitrate anion has a trigonal planar structure in which 3 oxygen atoms are bonded to a central nitrogen atom. The negative charge on this ion is delocalized due to resonance. Therefore, the nitrogen atom a charge of +1 whereas each oxygen atom carries a charge of -⅔. The net formal charge on the NO3– is -1.
