Glycerin is a flammable substance but the rating of its flammability is 1. Glycerin still can affect even though flammability is not as high as the other.
A mixture of glycerin and potassium permanganate can be flammable. When glycerin comes in contact with potassium permanganate, a vigorous exothermic reaction can occur, producing intense heat and potentially igniting the surrounding materials. Extreme caution should be exercised when handling this mixture.
Some toothpastes contain ingredients that are flammable, such as glycerin, which is a common component. However, toothpaste itself is not typically considered flammable under normal conditions.
The discovery of glycerin is credited to the Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1779. He isolated glycerin by heating a mixture of lead monoxide and olive oil, which resulted in the production of a sweet-tasting substance that he named "glycerin."
Approximately 240 grams in one cup of glycerin.
Yes, glycerol and glycerin are the same compound, often used interchangeably.

Potassium nitrate itself is not flammable. Only when it is combined with something that has the potential to burn (sugar, wood chips, glycerin, etc), it can increase the flammability and burn rate of that substance.
Glycerin
glycerin
That is the correct spelling of glycerin.
It is possible for glycerin to be encapsulated. The most common form of encapsulated glycerin is Vegetable glycerin. Capsules may be sold at a pharmacy, such as Walgreens or CVS.
C3H8 is the chemical formula of propane (hydrocarbon, alkane).
No, water will float on top of glycerin because water is less dense than glycerin.
oil is lighter than glycerin.
Some people suggest substituting glycerin with an unflavored oil (same proportion as the glycerin). You can usually miss the glycerin out of the recipe without it resulting in an extremely different outcome (as long as the glycerin was only a small proportion of the recipe).
Not really, glycerin is a humidicant. Meaning that it does not evaporate and in fact absorbs water from the air. It is this property of glycerin that keeps "glycerin preserved" foliage soft and pliable (unlike dried foliage which is brittle). Also glycerin is a sugar and hence it is subject to bio-degradation.
