What is the difference between potassium chloride and potassium nitrate?
The difference between potassium nitrate and potassium sulphate is that the potassium nitrate is superior to potassium sulphate. The potassium nitrate has high solubility while the potassium sulphate has moderate solubility.
Does potassium dissolved in water conduct electricity?
Who cares. All I know is potassium nitrate and sugar makes an amazing smoke bomb. Oddly enough it can be found on eBay. 8D
What temperature does potassium nitrate burn?
I don't know for sure, but I melted a beer can with a smoke bomb. The aluminium actually evaporated (if that's even possible) as there was nothing left of the can. So well over 660 degrees.
In which industry used potassium nitrate?
Potassium nitrate is used in fertilisers as a nitrate source, sometimes in food as a preservative (although other nitrates work better and are used more often), in ice cream making, in toothpastes for sensitive teeth, and in fireworks and some explosives as an oxidant for the fuel.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate
What are all the reactions that take place in a potassium permanganate and glycerin reaction?
Reaction of Potassium Permanganate and Glycerine Addition of glycerin to a pile of potassium permanganate produces white smoke and a purple flame. The reaction is not instantaneous, but depends on the fineness of the solid crystals. Equation: 14 KMnO4 + 4 C3H5(OH)3 --> 7 K2CO3 + 7 Mn2O3 + 5 CO2 + 16 H2O Reference B. Z. Shakhashiri, "Chemical Demonstrations", Vol. 1, The University of Wisconsin Press, Madison ,Wisconsin, (1983) p. 83. See the Web Links page for a cool video of the reaction!

How do you make a smoke bomb without using potassium nitrate?
vinegar and baking soda will smoke up when combined, but don't breath it in. It will also unclog a sink.

What materials are needed to make a smoke bomb?
The are a few ways to make a smoke bomb and depending on the method chosen, the materials will vary. One way requires the following products; sugar, potassium nitrate, skillet and aluminum foil.
What minerals are used to make fireworks?
Here are some ingredients in fireworks... Charcoal, gun powder (black powder) ( for explosion), alumunuim powder ( for flash), potassium nitrate (saltpeter) (for smoke).
Is the smoke from ammonium nitrate toxic?
Yes!
Are ammonium nitrate smoke bombs toxic?
Yes.
What chemicals are important to fireworks and what do they do?
Black powder (gun powder) for explosion magnesuim for shimmer sparkle effect copper for green coloring iron for gold coloring potassium nitrate for smoke and alumunuim powder for flash

What is a powerful irritant present in smog is?
Powerful eye irrititant present in SMoke + Fog is:- Peroxyacetyl Nitrate. Cheers !
What causes purple smoke?
Purple smoke can be caused by chemicals such as potassium permanganate or potassium chlorate in a smoke bomb or pyrotechnic device. These chemicals produce a purple color when burned and mixed with other compounds in the smoke mixture.
When making smoke bombs with sugar ammonia nitrate and water can you add copper sulphate to change the colour of the smoke to green?
Copper Sulfate won't give green smoke, you can better use "Methylene blue" for blue smoke.
