Potassium Cyanide, because K is the symbol for Potassium and CN represents cyanide.
Why is potassium Ferricyanide less poisonous than potassium cyanide?
Cyanide is highly poisonous because it binds irreversibly to the iron in the haemoglobin of the red blood cells, preventing them from transporting oxygen. In the ferricyanide, the cyanide ligands are already bonded strongly to an iron atom, so are not as freely able to bond to haemoglobin if they enter the bloodstream. Ferricyanides can however become very dangerous on reaction with acids, which can re-release the cyanide ligands.
Is cyanide a mineral?
Cyanide is not a substance in itself but refers to a radical -CN which attaches readily to elements such as potassium and sodium to form such compounds as potassium cyanide KCN, and sodium cyanide NaCN, both of which are extremely poisonous. In any case, these compounds are known as salts and could be considered minerals whether or not they are naturally occurring.
What is the ionic compound KCN?
Ammonium cyanide
