Fluorine nitrate is an unstable derivative of nitric acid with the formula FNO
₃. It is shock-sensitive.^[1] Due to its instability, it is often produced from chlorine nitrate as needed^{[citation needed]}.

Synthesis and properties[]

Fluorine nitrate is formed when fluorine gas is bubbled through nitric acid or reacted with solid potassium nitrate:^[2]

F
2 + HNO
3 → FNO
3 + HF

F
2 + KNO
3 → FNO
3 + KF

It decomposes in water to form oxygen gas, oxygen difluoride, hydrofluoric acid, and nitric acid.^[1]
