  • Calculate the Relative Formula Mass of Nitrate (NO3-)
    To calculate the relative formula mass of Nitrate (NO3-), we add the relative atomic masses of each atom in the formula.

    Nitrogen (N) has a relative atomic mass of 14.01.

    Oxygen (O) has a relative atomic mass of 16.00.

    In nitrate (NO3-), we have one Nitrogen atom, and three Oxygen atoms.

    Relative Formula mass of Nitrate (NO3-) = (1 x 14.01) + (3 x 16.00)

    = 14.01 + 48.00

    = 62.01

    Therefore, the relative formula mass of nitrate is approximately 62.01.
