No3 or nitrates are the most water soluble of all salts and play a major part in nitrogen cycle and nitrate pollution. Inkrganic nitrates are formed by bacteria and are an essential component of agri soli. Organic nitrates are manufactured compounds and because they generate oxygen when heated are used in explosives such as nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin.
