Describe how you would test if a liquid is a nitrate​

The nitrate ion can easily be identified by heating copper turnings along with concentrated sulfuric acid. Effervescence of a brown, pungent gas is observed which turns moist blue litmus paper red. Here sulfuric acid reacts with the nitrate ion to form nitric acid.

Hope it helps :)

Have great Day  

let that person have a turn to speak : )
