How can you determine the chemical formula for calcium dinitrate?
How did you determine that?
The name calcium dinitrate tells us that it contains calcium ions and dinitrate ions. The formula for nitrate is NO3, so the formula for dinitrate is NO3 multiplied by 2, which gives us NO6. Now, we combine the calcium ion with two dinitrate ions, which gives us Ca(NO3)2.
