How are chlorates produced?

They are formed when 3 atoms of chlorine bond together by sharing atoms from their p and d orbitals ... At least that's what i think =]


Suppose that aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium carbonate are mixed What is the name of the compound or compounds that precipitate?

It's Barium Carbonate. Due to the solubilty rules, nitrates and chlorates are soluble.


What is the chemical formula for ammonium chlorate?

Ammonium chlorate is an inorganic compound with the formula NH4ClO3. ---- It is obtained by neutralizing chloric acid with either ammonia or ammonium carbonate, or by precipitating barium, strontium or calcium chlorates with ammonium carbonate or ammonium sulfate, producing the respective carbonate or sulfate precipitate and an ammonium chlorate solution. Ammonium chlorate crystallizes in small needles, readily soluble in water. On heating, ammonium chlorate decomposes at about 102 °C, with liberation of nitrogen, chlorine and oxygen. It is soluble in dilute aqueous alcohol, but insoluble in strong alcohol. This compound is a strong oxidizer and should never be stored with flammable materials. Ammonium chlorate is a very unstable oxidizer and will decompose, sometimes violently, at room temperature. It will explode when exposed to sunlight for a few minutes. Even solutions are known to be unstable. Because of the dangerous nature of this salt it should only be kept in solution when needed, and never be allowed to crystallize.


What is the difference between the chlorine ion and the chlorate ion?

An atom is a neutral particle with the same number of protons as electrons. Ions are particles that have either more or less electrons. Ions can be positively charged (cations) or negatively charged. Ions will lose or gain electrons in order to have eight outer shell electrons. A chlorine atom has 17 electrons and 7 valence electrons (outer shell). It "wants" to have eight valence electrons, so it will gain one. Therefore, the typical chlorine atom will have one electron more.

Only some salts are chlorides; but salts are also nitrates, chlorates, acetates, benzoates, phosphates, sulfates etc.


What materials can explode?

Any material that is unstable, and can drop to a lower energy level. There are far too many to list here, but they include many nitrates and chlorates.

How is bone used in making explosives?

Bone is not. Explosives are typically based on chlorates or nitrates that are chemically unstable, and can drop to a lower energy state. In doing so, they give up energy- which is the explosion.


Is firework explosion a chemical change?

Yes, the gunpowder reacts with oxygen. The oxygen comes from oxidizers perchlorates, chlorates, nitrates, permanganates, chromates or oxides.In propelling the rocket, potassium nitrate is used with black powder. Chlorates or perchlorates are used for the explosion as it reacts with carbon and sulfur rapidly. For the different colours of firework, various metal salts are used.


Where do fireworks and space rockets get their oxygen from?

They take it with them in some form or another. Fireworks use oxidizing salts such as various nitrates and chlorates. Solid fuel rockets generally use ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer while liquid fuel rockets carry liquid oxygen.


Why is sodium a very reactive metal and chlorine is a very reactive nonmetal?

sodium has in his orbits or shell 2,8,1 so it is easier for it to loose this electron to reach his stability form and for that it is very reactive with most of the chemical elements otherwise the chlorine is very active specifically with Oxygen O2 which transform it to chlorites, chlorates, and perchlorate


What are the uses of iodometry?

The iodine value is the measure of the unsaturation of fats and oils. It is expressed as the number of grams of iodine absorbed by 100 g of the fat under the test conditions used.
