How can you invest in lithium?
Building lithium batteries and lithium-ion batteries, producing compounds as carbonate, citrate, fluoride, hydroxide, deuteride, etc. with many applications, producing light alloys, etc.
When does water act as a base and an acid?
molecules in water that release hydrogen ions (H+) are acids, while molecules in water that release hydroxide (OH-) are bases. In water solutions, acids affect water molecules, producing hydronium (H3O+) and bases also affect water molecules, producing hydroxide (OH-) ions.
If strontium reacts with water is it chemical or physical change?
Strontium reacts with water producing strontium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This is a chemical change.
What happens when sulfur dioxide reacts with calcium hydroxide?
Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4 --> CaSO4 + 2H2O Acid base neutralization reaction producing a salt and water.
What is different of kcl and cl?
Kcl means potasiam chloride and cl means chlorin . kcl is a compound and cl is an element . when cl react with k a compound produce called kcl.
What observations do you make when you react potassium hydroxide with sodium carbonate?
You get a double decomposition reaction, producing sodium hydroxide and potassium carbonate, but actually there is no real reaction; the four substances remain in perfect equilibrium in solution.
What happens if K keep in air?
Potassium oxidizes immediately when exposed to air. It also reacts violently in water, producing potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas produced will burn spontaneously, so potassium is always stored in a liquid with which it does not react, such as kerosene.
Why would potassium be unsuitable for the building industry?
Potassium is one of the most reactive metals there is. If it touches water it immediately starts to react producing hydrogen and getting very hot. Within seconds it gets hot enough to burn. This ignites the hydrogen and causes an explosion which sprays molten potassium around which continues to burn. When potassium burns it makes potassium oxide. This dissolves in water to make potassium hydroxide which is a highly corrosive alkali. If you breath in the fumes of burning potasium then it makes potassium hydroxide inside your throat and lungs. This would burn them and make them swell up so you couldn't breath. Potassium is very dangerous stuff. Imagine what would happen if it rained on a potassium building!
When a small piece of potassium is dropped into a beaker of water the potassium moves about rapidly and then ignites within secounds the metal is gone and all activity ceases Is that chemical change?
Yes, according to wikipedia: Potassium reacts very violently with water producing potassium hydroxide (KOH) and hydrogen gas.2 K (s) + 2 H2O (l) → 2 KOH (aq) + H2 (g) This is a chemical change.
What products will be formed in the reaction between potassium hydroxide and nitric acid?
Products are potassium nitrate and water. Here is the Word Equation Potassium hydrtoxide + nitric Acid = potassium nitrate and water. Here is the BALANCED reaction eq'n KOH(aq) + HNO3(aq) = KNO3(aq) + H2O(l) NB THere will be no precipitate. To isolate the product you need to evaporate the solution. NNB All Group (1) metal cations (K^+) and nitrate anions(NO3^-) are soluble.
What are the materials of producing iodized salt?
Iodized salt contain potassium iodide (KI) or potassium iodate (KIO3).
How does potassium react with water?
It only creates a purple "cloud" as was stated in the previous answer when phenolphthalein is added to the water. The "cloud" is not a cloud. Hydrogen gas is evolved. Phenolphthalein is clear in acidic conditions, and purple in basic conditions. As potassium is added to the water, potassium hydroxide is created (alkaline/basic) therefore creating the purple colour water, and hydrogen gas is evolved. A link accompanying this shows lithium through to Caesium, potassium included, in water and shows the equation of the reaction. Caesium in particular is very entertaining.
What scientist described a base as a compound that dissociates in water producing hydroxide ions?
Arrhenius
Why can't we store sodium hydroxide solution in aluminium containers?
Sodium hydroxide reacts with aluminum, corroding the metal and producing hihgly flammable hydrogen gas.
How does calcium react in water?
Yes. Calcium reacts vigorously with water producing hydrogen and calcium hydroxide.
Will calcium chloride and potassium react?
Yes. The potassium will replace the calcium in the calcium chloride, producing potassium chloride and calcium. This is an example of a single replacement/displacement reaction. CaCl2 + 2K --> 2KCl + Ca
Is potassium good for you?
In large enough amounts, yes. The United States and a few other countries use a massive dose of potassium chloride to carry out executions by lethal injection. Elemental potassium can also be deadly. It will react explosively with water, setting itself on fire and producing caustic potassium hydroxide.
