Potassium nitrate is an oxidant an react with a reducing agent; the reaction is violent and exothermic.
A link to see.
Potassium metal can react violently with water to produce hydrogen gas. However, it is not recommended to deliberately mix potassium with any specific substance to make it explode, as this can be extremely dangerous and highly unpredictable. Handling and storing potassium and other reactive metals should always be done with great caution and following appropriate safety protocols.
The reaction between potassium and a dilute acid or even just water (which is what an acid is diluted in) is very dangerous. On contact with the acid the potassium bursts into flame and may even explode, sending flaming molten pieces of potassium into the air.
The reaction between potassium and hydrochloric acid is very violent, even explosive. On contact with the acid the reaction rapidly releases heat and hydrogen gas, which ignites. This in turn sets the potassium on fire. When this happens the potassium may explode, scattering flaming molten globules of metal.
The "formal" name of fireworks is "pyrotechnics"; this is not really a particularly "chemical" name.
If a piece of Potassium is dropped into a beaker of water it whizzes around on the surface of the water. The reaction is so vigorous that the heat of it causes the Potassium metal to metal. It 'fizzes' and the heat generated can often cause the Hydrogen, that is produced by the reaction, to ignite with a lilac colour flame. Larger pieces of Potassium may even explode due to the vigor of the reaction. 2K + 2H2O ----> 2KOH + H2 (gas)
Yes it will. potassium reacts with water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen. the reaction is highly exothermic and will explode. However, potassium can be slowly dissolved by adding very small piece of potassium in water, wait till it dissolves completely and then add the next piece. But should be done with caution.
They explode and combust.
gasoline combined with air will explode, gasoline won't burn without air the fumes mixed with air will explode but the gasolin will burn
Cesium and Potassium are both elements that explode in Water!
The flame will turn a violet color. It will not explode.

The first question would be to ask why the potassium is elevated. do you take a potassium supplement? Do you have trouble with your kidneys? What does your doctor say? There are drugs that will decrease potassium but they must be administered and monitored under the care of a physician.
you fall down and explode
the answer to this question is copper and silver :')
No reaction will occur between Potassium Sulfate and Ammonium Nitrate.
The reaction between potassium and a dilute acid or even just water (which is what an acid is diluted in) is very dangerous. On contact with the acid the potassium bursts into flame and may even explode, sending flaming molten pieces of potassium into the air.
Pure Potassium (K) will catch fire and may explode upon contact with water or very humid air.
