Potassium perchlorate in crystal form. Potassium perchlorate is prepared industrially by treating an aqueous solution of sodium perchlorate with potassium chloride.This single precipitation reaction exploits the low solubility of KClO 4, which is about 1/100 as much as the solubility of NaClO 4 (209.6 g/100 mL at 25 °C).
Potassium hypochlorite is a chemical compound with the chemical formula K O Cl, also written as KClO. It is the potassium salt of hypochlorous acid. It consists of potassium cations (K +) and hypochlorite anions (− OCl). It is used in variable concentrations, often diluted in water solution.
Potassium chlorate is the inorganic compound with the molecular formula KClO 3. In its pure form, it is a white solid. After sodium chlorate, it is the second most common chlorate in industrial use. It is a strong oxidizing agent and its most important application is in safety matches. [6]
Perchlorate compounds oxidize organic compounds, especially when the mixture is heated. The explosive decomposition of ammonium perchlorate is catalyzed by metals and heat. [14] As perchlorate is a weak Lewis base (i.e., a weak electron pair donor) and a weak nucleophilic anion, it is also a very weakly coordinating anion. [14]
Perchloric acid is a mineral acid with the formula H Cl O 4. It is an oxoacid of chlorine. Usually found as an aqueous solution, this colorless compound is a stronger acid than sulfuric acid, nitric acid and hydrochloric acid.

Common name Chemical name (Formula) Potash fertilizer: Up to the early 20th century:potassium carbonate (K 2 CO 3). Beginning from the late 19th century: one or more of potassium chloride (KCl), potassium sulfate (K 2 SO 4) or potassium nitrate (KNO 3).
The name DuPhos is derived from the chemical company that developed this type of ligand (DuP, DuPont) and the compound class of phospholanes (Phos) it belongs to. FOOF Dioxygen difluoride , O 2 F 2 , an extremely unstable compound which reacts explosively with most other substances – the nickname "FOOF" is a play on its formula.
