Answer:
I'm not verified but I do know that HNO3 is a base and a potent acid
Step-by-step explanation:
It is used as a nitrating agent. because its base is more stable its stronger than nitrous acid HNO3 can be made by the formula NO 2 + H 2O → 2 HNO 3 + NO (the reaction of NO2 with water). it can be used to produce ammonium nitrates to make plastic, dye, and fertilizers, make explosives and a oxidizer in liquid-fueled rocket thrusters.
