Nitrate is a negative ion (anion), NO3-. It does not exist in isolation, but must be part of a compound with a positive ion (cation). Examples of nitrate salts are sodium nitrate, NaNO3-, magnesium nitrate, Mg(NO3)2 and ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3. These salts are solid at room temperature and water soluble.

(When nitric acid, HNO3, dissolves in water the solution also contains the nitrate ion as well as hydrogen ions)

Nitrate is typically found in the form of solid salts, such as potassium nitrate or sodium nitrate. However, nitrates can also dissolve in water, making them present in liquids. Nitrate itself is not a gas at room temperature and pressure.

How many combinations of the three states of matter are there?

There are three basic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. The number of combinations possible from these states is 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. The six possible combinations are solid-liquid-gas, solid-gas-liquid, liquid-solid-gas, liquid-gas-solid, gas-solid-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid.
