Answer:

Sodium nitrate is an inorganic nitrate salt of an alkali metal with the chemical formula NaNO3.

Commonly referred to as “Chile saltpeter”, this compound consists of a sodium cation (Na+) and a nitrate anion (NO3–). At room temperature, sodium nitrate exists as a white, crystalline solid which is highly soluble in water.

Explanation:

Formula and structure: The chemical formula of sodium nitrate is NaNO3. Its molecular formula is NNaO3 and its molar mass is 84.9947 g/mol. It is the sodium salt of nitric acid (HNO3), and hence, is composed of the sodium cation (Na+) and nitrate anion (NO3-).
