What is the structure of KBrO3?
potassium bromate
What is the equation for potassium bromate is mixed with aluminum phosphate solution to produce potassium phosphate and aluminum bromate?
3KBrO3 + AlPO4 ------> K3PO4 + Al(BrO3)3
Is bromate a metal?
No, bromate is not a metal, but is an ion
Is potassium ethanoate a base?
Yes, it is
What acid and what base makes potassium chloride?
Potassium hydroxide is the most common. J Ayres
What is the structure of KBrO3?
potassium bromate
Is potassium bromate neutral?
Potassium bromate, KBrO3 is the salt of a strong base and a semi weak acid. So the salt will be alkaline (pH >7) upon dissolution.
How do you prepare 1000 ppm of bromate from potassium bromate?
Dissolve 128 mg of potassium bromate in 100 ml of deionised water
What is the name for KBr03?
Potassium Bromate
What is the name for KBrO?
potassium bromate
What is the chemical formula of potassium bromate?
KBrO3
What is the chemical name for KO Br?
Potassium Bromate
What is the equation for potassium bromate is mixed with aluminum phosphate solution to produce potassium phosphate and aluminum bromate?
3KBrO3 + AlPO4 ------> K3PO4 + Al(BrO3)3
Why does potassium bromate considered the leading contributor in renal failure?
Sodium bromate was ingested by hair dressers in Japan in a suicide attempt. One of the things that this caused was kidney failure. Excesses of potassium, sodium and bromate ions are all passed via the kidney. Bromate is an oxidizer, and will reduce fairly easily to bromide ion oxidizing whatever it can with pH changes. Excess potassium (whether or not with the bromate anion) is an issue for people with kidney problems. Potassium bromate is sometimes mixed in flour when bread is made. It looks like flour. Baking converts most of the bromate to bromide. If the mixing is not thorough, potassium bromide / bromate can be ingested in large quantities. So it is a "leading contributor" only because it has a known use in the human food chain.
What household product contains bromate?
Flour often contains potassium bromate which is added to help it rise better in recipes.
What is the correct name of the ionic compound KBrO3?
Potassium bromate
Is bromate a preservative used in bread?
Potassium bromate is added to enhance the rising characteristics of the dough. It is an oxygen source. What has not been harvested for its oxygen content by yeast, breaks down to potassium bromide upon (fully) baking the dough into bread. Most countries have banned its use, starting in the 1990's, because some organisms develop cancer when they consume potassium bromate. Its use here has largely been replaced with ascorbic acid (and other selections). Potassium bromate is also used to "modify" barley malt used in brewing. Sodium bromate is used in permanent wave solution.
