  2. Flash powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_powder

    Potassium nitrate/magnesium flash powder should be mixed and used immediately and not stored due to its tendency of self-ignition. If magnesium is not a very fine powder, it can be passivated with linseed oil or potassium dichromate. The passivated magnesium flash powder is stable and generally safe to store. 2 KNO 3 + 5 Mg → K 2 O + N 2 + 5 MgO

    In contact with potassium nitrate (e.g. in black powder) produces potassium perchlorate and hygroscopic ammonium nitrate; no such reaction with sodium nitrate. Reacts with potassium chlorate, producing unstable, gradually decomposing ammonium chlorate; such combination has to be avoided. [1] Nitronium perchlorate

  4. Potassium perchlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_perchlorate

    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).

  6. Potassium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorate

    With further heating, potassium perchlorate decomposes to potassium chloride and oxygen: KClO 4 → KCl + 2 O 2. The safe performance of this reaction requires very pure reagents and careful temperature control. Molten potassium chlorate is an extremely powerful oxidizer and spontaneously reacts with many common materials such as sugar.

  7. Perchlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchlorate

    Perchlorate concentration was the highest in Chilean nitrate, ranging from 3.3 to 3.98%. [51] Perchlorate in the solid fertilizer ranged from 0.7 to 2.0 mg g −1, variation of less than a factor of 3 and it is estimated that sodium nitrate fertilizers derived from Chilean caliche contain approximately 0.5–2 mg g −1 of perchlorate anion. [74]

    The liquid potassium chlorate decomposes into potassium perchlorate and potassium chloride. 4 KClO 3 → KCl + 3 KClO 4. The potassium perchlorate decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen. KClO 4 → KCl + 2 O 2. The sugar in the candy reacts with oxygen, forming water and carbon dioxide. The reaction is exothermic and produces heat, smoke ...
