lethal injection uses potassium chloride to stop the heart from working and is the 3rd drug injected since there are only 3 drugs involved during lethal injection. FYI:lethal injection uses.

sodium thiopental

=induces unconciousness

=also used for anasteasia in surgeries ect

pencuronium bromide

=mustle relaxant

=paralizes the victim

potassium chloride

=induses cardiac arrest

=stops heart from working

ST=ANESTHETIC AGENT

PB=PARALYZING AGENT

PC=TOXIC AGENT

this should answer your question on potassium chloride the other acids and bases im not realy fimmilular with hope this helped.
