An acid is a compound. Potassium is an element. so no.
Example, sulfuric acid is H2SO4, sort of dangerous stuff, is found inside car batterys your parents always say to stay away from.
Potassium is K. its a vitamin you can buy in the grocery store also. Its in bananas so it cant be harmful. (unless you dont like bananas hehe)
What else can I help you with?
What acid and base forms potassium acetate?
Acid; Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid Alkali(Base) ; Potassium hydroxide.
Why is it unsafe to add an acid to potassium?
Potassium will react violently, with acid. The reaction can potentially splatter droplets of acid or pieces of burning potassium.
Is potassium an acid?
No. Potassium is a metal.
Acid and base that makes potassium iodide?
To make potassium iodide, you would need to first react iodine with potassium hydroxide. This will create potassium iodate, which can then be reduced to potassium iodide using a reducing agent like sulfur dioxide or hydriodic acid.
Is potassium acetate a weak acid?
No, potassium acetate is a salt formed by the reaction of a strong base (potassium hydroxide) with a weak acid (acetic acid). Potassium acetate is neutral and does not act as an acid in aqueous solutions.
Is potassium fluoride acid or base?
Potassium Flouride is a salt. It is neither acid nor base. It tends to be slightly alkaline.
What is the reaction between sulfuric acid and potassium nitrate?
When sulfuric acid reacts with potassium nitrate, it forms potassium sulfate, nitric acid, and water.
In the neutralisation of sulfuric acid by potassium hydroxide what displaces the hydrogen in the acid?
Potassium displaces the hydrogen in sulfuric acid when reacting with potassium hydroxide to form potassium sulfate and water.
Is potassium chloride an acid?
No, potassium chloride is not an acid. It is a salt composed of potassium and chloride ions.
Why would you not make a potassium compound by reacting potassium metal with an acid?
Potassium is too reactive to mix with acid
Is potassium sulfate a base or acid?
Potassium sulfate is neither a base nor an acid. It is a salt that is formed by the reaction of a base (potassium hydroxide) and an acid (sulfuric acid).
Which alkaki has neutralised citric acid if the salt potassium nitrate is made?
This question cannot be answered because if you neutralise citric acid you will get a citrate, not a nitrate. To get potassium nitrate you will need the alkali potassium hydroxide and nitric acid.
