What does Potassium nitrate do when met with oxygen?

Potassium nitrate itself is a source of oxygen, and it is not flammable by itself. So in oxygen, even in a very high amount of it, nothing would happen. However, if any combustible substance is combined with potassium nitrate and ignited, it would burn.


What is the colour of potassium nitrate solution?

Due to the potassium ion in potassium nitrate, any firework composition made with potassium nitrate would sport a purple/violet color, unless a strong colorant compound like strontium chloride is added to the composition.


How do you get potassium nitrate out of a mixture with calcium carbonate?

calcium carbonate+ nitric acid. a strong acid would replace a weaker acid in most ionic compounds, so you would produce calcium nitrate and carbon dioxide. well, being that nitric acid is widely UNAVAILABLE to most people, it is easy to find potassium or sodium nitrate. if you are going specifically for calcium nitrate you can double displace calcium carbonate with potassium or sodium nitrate resulting in potassium or sodium carbonate and (aq) calcium nitrate. the potassium or sodium carbonate will probably precipitate out much quicker than the nitrate depending on how exact your equation for displacement is. and you should be left with (aq) calcium nitrate. boil off the water and preferably recrystallize for purity. if youre using calcium carbonate just to get any form of nitrate, i recommend simply buying potassium nitrate. if it is not assessable in your area and are trying to get an oxidizer ( i assume thats why you are trying to make a nitrate) i recommend going with a chlorate or perchlorate, these are easier to make at home through electrolysis.

Is potassium nitrate or saltpetre considered a natural food preservative?

According to Wikipedia, in the process of food preservation, potassium nitrate is a common ingredient of salted meat, but there are theories indicating that using nitrates in meats can cause cancer. As a preservative it can be known as E252. I am unsure about potassium nitrate, but sodium nitrate has been marked as something we should avoid, but it actually has beneficial properties despite what some "studies" say, it in moderate does is nothing to fear, but instead may be beneficial. Potassium nitrate is still a mystery to me though, i plan to look into though eventually.
