  2. Potassium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chloride

    Potassium chloride (KCl, or potassium salt) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. It is odorless and has a white or colorless vitreous crystal appearance. The solid dissolves readily in water, and its solutions have a salt-like taste. Potassium chloride can be obtained from ancient dried lake deposits. [7]

  3. Potash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potash

    After the water evaporated, the potassium salts crystallized into beds of potash ore. These are the locations where potash is being mined today. The deposits are a naturally occurring mixture of potassium chloride (KCl) and sodium chloride (NaCl), more commonly known as table salt. Over time, as the surface of the earth changed, these deposits ...

  4. Potassium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorate

    Potassium chlorate can be produced in small amounts by disproportionation in a sodium hypochlorite solution followed by metathesis reaction with potassium chloride: [7] 3 NaOCl → 2 NaCl + NaClO 3 KCl + NaClO 3 → NaCl + KClO 3. It can also be produced by passing chlorine gas into a hot solution of caustic potash: [8] 3 Cl 2 + 6 KOH → KClO ...

  5. Potassium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium

    Potassium chloride may be dissolved in water, but the salty/bitter taste makes liquid supplements unpalatable. [ 126 ] [ 127 ] Potassium is also available in tablets or capsules, which are formulated to allow potassium to leach slowly out of a matrix, since very high concentrations of potassium ion that occur adjacent to a solid tablet can ...

  6. Molten salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molten_salt

    Molten FLiBe (2LiF·BeF 2). Molten salt is salt which is solid at standard temperature and pressure but liquified due to elevated temperature. A salt that is liquid even at standard temperature and pressure is usually called a room-temperature ionic liquid, and molten salts are technically a class of ionic liquids.

  7. Potassium chlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorite

    Potassium chlorite is a potassium salt of chlorous acid (HClO 2) having a chemical formula KClO 2. It exists as white powder and its annhydrous form easily undergoes decomposition in presence of heat or radiation (especially gamma rays). [1]

  8. Ringer's lactate solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringer's_lactate_solution

    Generally, the source of the constituent ions is a mixture of sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium lactate (CH 3 CH(OH)CO 2 Na), calcium chloride (CaCl 2), and potassium chloride (KCl), dissolved into distilled water. Ringer's solution has the same constituents without the sodium lactate, though sometimes it may also include magnesium chloride (MgCl ...

  9. Potassium ferrocyanide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_ferrocyanide

    In the reaction with Iron(III) chloride, producing Potassium chloride as a side-product: 3 K 4 [Fe(CN) 6] + 4 FeCl 3 → Fe 4 [Fe(CN) 6] 3 + 12 KCl With the composition Fe III 4 [Fe II 6] 3, this insoluble but deeply coloured material is the blue of blueprinting, as well as on many famous paintings such as The Great Wave off Kanagawa and The ...
