$$
\begin{aligned}
&\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}+3 \mathrm{Fe}^{+2}+4 \mathrm{H}^{+} \rightarrow \mathrm{NO}+3 \mathrm{Fe}^{+3}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \\\\
&{\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+} \mathrm{NO} \rightarrow \underset{\text{Brown ring}}{\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{5} \mathrm{NO}]^{2+} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right.}}
\end{aligned}
