The potassium reacts with the water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The reaction is very exothermic, and the hydrogen explodes during the reaction. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS REACTION! DO NOT ATTEMPT IT ON YOUR OWN!

and then...?..are the K+ or the Cl- ions attracted to the partially negative atoms of the water molecule?

What happens if you put a jar of hot water in a pan of cold water?
it becomes warm
What happens if you put cold hands into hot water?
It gets numb.
Can you put dry ice in salt water?
Yes, you can put dry ice in salt water. It will bubble furiously and cool down the salt water.
If you put water in a bowl light a match put it in the water and then put a glass over the water what will cause the water to get sucked into the glass?
When that happens it uses up all the oxygen and replaces it with co2 (carbon dioxide) and water and that what makes the sucking affect :)
What happens when you put dye in water?
If you boil it, the water will boil and the dye will not, leaving you with dye.
What happens when you put sodium chloride into water?
Sodium chloride is easily dissolved.
If you put potassium chloride in the crucible instead of potassium chlorate how would the results turn out?
Potassium chloride is melted at 770 oC.
What happens if you put potassium into water?
The potassium catches on fire and then explodes. Seriously. Don't try it.
Can you explain what happens to the particles of potassium chloride when they dissolve in the water?
when particles of KCl are put in water, they dissolve because KCl being a polar ionic compound, its ions separate and in aqueous solutions, water molecules surround these ions with the partially positive hydrogen ions closer to the chloride ions and the partially negative oxide ion towards the potassium ion but the electron cloud is bigger on the side of the chloride ion since it's more electronegative and the attraction between the hydrogen and the chlorine and between oxygen and potassium becomes stronger than that between potassium and chlorine hence the two ions [potassium and chloride] are pulled apart forming ions in the solution
What happens when you put salt and pepper in a glass of water?
Sodium chloride is dissolved and dissociated in water.
What happens when it is put in water potassium?
Potassium metal will react violently with water to form KOH and hydrogen gas. Due to the heat released by the reaction - the hydrogen gas will ignite. So: placing potassium in water will cause a fire!
Can you make salt water with salt and water?
Yes, you make salt water with salt and water.
What is the reaction when potassium sulfate is put into water?
Write the reaction when potassium sulfide is put into water:
What happens to the colour of water when potassium permanganate is added?
according to the amount we put the change from dark purple to pink color
What happens when aluminum and chloride are put together?
Preheated aluminum will burn when introduced to chloride
What happens when you put magnesium chloride with water?
y dont u try to do tht right now and check happens jk i dont know what 2 do
Potassium plus chlorine equals?
The reaction equation is: 2K + Cl2 --> 2KCl
