Dipotassium phosphate (K 2 HPO 4) (also dipotassium hydrogen orthophosphate; potassium phosphate dibasic) is the inorganic compound with the formula K 2 HPO 4. (H 2 O) x (x = 0, 3, 6). Together with monopotassium phosphate (KH 2 PO 4. (H 2 O) x), it is often used as a fertilizer, food additive, and buffering agent. [1]
An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
Potassium oxide (K 2 O) is an ionic compound of potassium and oxygen.It is a base.This pale yellow solid is the simplest oxide of potassium. It is a highly reactive compound that is rarely encountered.
Monopotassium phosphate Dipotassium phosphate Tripotassium phosphate. Potassium phosphate is a generic term for the salts of potassium and phosphate ions including: [1] Monopotassium phosphate (KH 2 PO 4) (Molar mass approx: 136 g/mol) Dipotassium phosphate (K 2 HPO 4) (Molar mass approx: 174 g/mol) Tripotassium phosphate (K 3 PO 4) (Molar mass ...
Monopotassium phosphate can exist in several polymorphs.At room temperature it forms paraelectric crystals with tetragonal symmetry. Upon cooling to −150 °C (−238 °F) it transforms to a ferroelectric phase of orthorhombic symmetry, and the transition temperature shifts up to −50 °C (−58 °F) when hydrogen is replaced by deuterium.

Potassium bicarbonate has widespread use in crops, especially for neutralizing acidic soil. [11]Potassium bicarbonate is an effective fungicide against powdery mildew and apple scab, allowed for use in organic farming.
Nessler's reagent, named after Julius Neßler (Nessler), is a 0.09 mol/L solution of potassium tetraiodomercurate(II) in 2.5 mol/L potassium hydroxide.This pale solution becomes deeper yellow in the presence of ammonia (NH 3).
Potassium cyanide is a compound with the formula KCN.It is a colorless salt, similar in appearance to sugar, that is highly soluble in water. Most KCN is used in gold mining, organic synthesis, and electroplating.
