  2. Potassium perchlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_perchlorate

    3 KClO 4 + C 6 H 12 O 6 → 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + 3 KCl. The conversion of solid glucose into hot gaseous CO 2 is the basis of the explosive force of this and other such mixtures. With sugar, KClO 4 yields a low explosive, provided a necessary confinement. Otherwise such mixtures simply deflagrate with an intense purple flame characteristic of ...

    Chemical nomenclature, replete as it is with compounds with very complex names, is a repository for some names that may be considered unusual. A browse through the Physical Constants of Organic Compounds in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (a fundamental resource) will reveal not just the whimsical work of chemists, but the sometimes peculiar compound names that occur as the ...

  5. Potassium hypochlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_hypochlorite

    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.

  6. Perchlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchlorate

    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]

  7. Potassium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorate

    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]

  9. Chemical compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_compound

    Ionic compounds can also be produced from their constituent ions by evaporation of their solvent, precipitation, freezing, a solid-state reaction, or the electron transfer reaction of reactive metals with reactive non-metals, such as halogen gases. Ionic compounds typically have high melting and boiling points, and are hard and brittle.
