Yes.

Monopotassium phosphate is also called potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) or monobasic potassiumphosphate (MKP).

Dihydrogen phosphate is H2PO4-, so it is a monopotassium salt.

Is phosphate and accord the same?

Accord is a combination of sodium and potassium phosphate (per the package I have in front of me). Its useful as a binder in emulsified meat products to help them retain water.


Is trisodium phosphate the same as tripotassium phosphate?

Depends on the context. Technically, phosphorus is an element (P), and phosphate is a molecular anion (PO4_3-), part of phosphoric acid (H3PO4). In (medical) diagnostic testing, they're often used interchangeably, sometimes called "inorganic phosphorus." It's also an essential plant nutrient, so on fertilizers you'll see the phosphorus content expressed as a percentage (by weight) measured as P2O5, the anhydride of phosphoric acid.


What is the balanced equation for silver nitrate and potassium iodide?

Do you want that for Monopotassium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, or tripotassium phosphate? --------------------------------- To clarify for the previous answerer, ionic compounds inherently don't use the mono-, di-, or tri- system used for molecular compounds. Instead, when a cation and an anion is supplied, the ionic compound assumes the number of cations and anions that will generate a neutral ionic compound. In this case, since K is 1+ and PO4 is 3-, the compound potassium phosphate always refers to K3PO4. Therefore: 3AgNO3 + K3PO4 -> 3KNO3 + Ag3PO4


Is KClO3 the same thing as potassium chloride?

No, KClO3 is not the same as potassium chloride. KClO3 is potassium chlorate, a compound that contains potassium, chlorine, and oxygen. Potassium chloride, on the other hand, is a compound that contains only potassium and chlorine.


Are potassium iodine tablets the same as potassium iodide tablets?

Yes. "Potassium Iodine" tablets is a colloquial - and incorrect - way of saying "Potassium Iodide" tablets.

Why do potassium oxide and potassium chloride give off the same colour of light in a flame test?

Potassium ions are responsible for the characteristic violet color observed in flame tests. Both potassium oxide and potassium chloride contain potassium ions that emit the same color of light when heated in a flame due to the same electronic transitions in the potassium atoms.
