Actually, this is a very simple metathesis reaction. Dissolving NaNO3 and KCl in hot water will produce a solution of Na+, K+, NO3-, and Cl- ions. Simply cooling this solution will cause the anion/cation combination with the lowest solubility to selectively precipitate out. Looking at some data for these salts:
KCl: 280g/L (0°C)
NaNO3: 730g/L (0°C)
KNO3: 130g/L (0°C)
NaCl: 360g/L (0°C)
Potassium nitrate has a relatively steep solubility vs temperature curve, and is the least soluble at 0°C, so it will crystallize very readily from a hot saturated solution that has been chilled to around the freezing point of pure water. Filtering out and collecting the precipitated KNO3 just leaves you with a solution of mostly Na+ and Cl- ions. The solubility of NaCl is quite high and doesn't change much with temperature, so it's possible to extract quite pure KNO3 directly from this reaction.

Can I use water soluble Sodium Chloride instead of Potassium Nitrate for Pineapple fertilization?
you can but it you do it will kill the plant...
Why do sodium chloride and the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color flame?
The color is from sodium, not from Cl or Nitrate - NO3.

What is the molecular equation for potassium chloride and sodium nitrate?
KCl + NaNO3 ----> KNO3 + NaCl
What is the ionic equation of NaCl aq plus KNO3 aq?
Do you mean: Na+Cl- + K+N03- --------> K+Cl- + Na+NO3- Sodium + Potassium ---> Potassium + Sodium Chloride Nitrate Chloride Nitrate
What is the equation for sodium chloride and sodium nitrate?
Sodium chloride and and sodium nitrate doesn't react.
What is the skeleton equation for sodium nitrate plus potassium chloride?
NaNO + Kcl =Nacl + KNO3 Further answer But the formula for sodium nitrate is NaNO3, not NaNO.
Equation for sodium chloride with mercurous nitrate?
Im not quite sure, but since potassium chloride and ammonium nitrate forms kno3, theoretically, sodium chloride and ammonium nitrate would form sodium nitrate. (Im not 100% sure due to that sodium chloride is more soluble than potassium chloride.)
What salts or minerals come from rocks?
Examples: sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium phosphates, sodium nitrate etc.
How salts are used in fertiliser?
- potassium chloride - ammonium and calcium nitrate - ammonium and sodium phosphates - ammonium sulfate etc.
