Nitric acid does NOT react with water, water disassociates the molecules into those ions (above). ... Water,Being a polar solvent,…makes HNO3 ionise or dissociate or simply break down into Hydronium ions, i.e,H+ or H3O+ ions and nitrate NO3- ions..that's all.
HNO₃ produce H₃O ⁺ and NO₃⁻ when it is placed in a water solution.
The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.
HNO₃ is Nitric acid. It is used for making explosives. It is also used for making plastics. The molecular weight of nitric acid is 63. Nitric acid is a strong acid.
When nitric acid react with water the equation is:
HNO₃ + H₂O ⇄ H₃O ⁺ + NO₃⁻
Here H₃O ⁺ is Hydronium ion. H₃O ⁺ is a conjugate acid. NO₃⁻ is nitrate ion. NO₃⁻ is conjugate base.
Thus from, the above conclusion we can say that HNO₃ produce H₃O ⁺ and NO₃⁻ when it is placed in a water solution.
