Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The nitrate ion is a polyatomic ion. It means that the nitrate ion contains more than one atom. These atoms are one nitrogen atom and three oxygen atoms.

However, we can not fully describe the bonding in the nitrate ion using one structure. I have shown three resonance structures that describe the bonding in the nitrate ion in the image attached to this answer.
