What is polarity of kcl?

Answer 1

polarity usually means one side is positive, and one side is negative. This means one side is looking for a free electron and one side has free electrons when talking about electricity potential.

A glass of potassium chloride solution is just that, a glass of the stuff. by itself its sort of stable and doesnt have an electrical charge. Plus, KCL is a 'salt' and is even sold in the grocery store as 'Lite' salt or low sodium salt.

I think it tasts yucky so I dont buy the stuff to put on my food.

So you must be thinking of something else or a certain condition in which the solution becomes charged

Answer 2

Potassium chloride (KCl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativity between potassium and chlorine atoms. The chlorine atom is more electronegative than the potassium atom, resulting in an uneven distribution of electron density and creating a partial negative charge on chlorine and a partial positive charge on potassium.
