What is the explosive force of Potassium when it comes in contact with cold water?
The explosive force is the reaction of potassium with water liberating hydrogen.
What does potassium do in water?
A violent chemical reaction: 2 K + 2 H2O = 2 KOH + H2 Potassium reacts with water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The reaction is exothermic, and the heat generated can ignite the hydrogen gas to create a fire. Large quantities of potassium can react explosively in water.
What products will be formed in the reaction between potassium hydroxide and nitric acid?
Products are potassium nitrate and water. Here is the Word Equation Potassium hydrtoxide + nitric Acid = potassium nitrate and water. Here is the BALANCED reaction eq'n KOH(aq) + HNO3(aq) = KNO3(aq) + H2O(l) NB THere will be no precipitate. To isolate the product you need to evaporate the solution. NNB All Group (1) metal cations (K^+) and nitrate anions(NO3^-) are soluble.
Do Chemical reactions always occur when product combine?
No, it depends entirely on what substances are involved. Sometimes chemical formulas will show the addition of reactants and on the side of the reactants there will be "NR," meaning "no reaction".
What would the reaction of potassium and cold water be like?
You aren't asking anything I don't know how to this. But if you're wondering, potassium does react (explode) to cold water and air, because it's an alkali metal (a element on the very right group or column of the periodic table). All alkali metals really want to lose an electron, making them highly reactive, and the further down the alkali metals you go, the more reactive they are.
What is the reaction between metal hydroxides and water?
single replacement
What is the reaction when potassium sulfate is put into water?
Write the reaction when potassium sulfide is put into water:
Reaction equation of potassium nitrate with water?
Any chemical reaction, only the dissolution of potassium nitrate in water.
What is the reaction between potassium hydroxide with water?
No reaction.
Chemical reaction for potassium nitride?
It reacts with water to produce toxic Ammonia
What is the chemical reaction of potassium oxide with water?
Potassium oxide(K2O) + water(H2O) --> potassium hydroxide(2KOH)
Word equation for the reaction between potassium and water?
Potassium plus Water gives Potassium Hydroxide plus Hydrogen
Potassium chloride and silver acetate react to produce silver chloride and potassium acetate. Which reaction has occurred?
The reaction you describe in words is: KCl + AgCH3CO2 → AgCl + KCH3CO2 This type of reaction is known as a "double replacement reaction" aka "double displacement reaction" aka "metathesis reaction." A double replacement reaction is a chemical reaction where two reactant ionic compounds exchange ions to form two new products compounds with the same ions. In this case the ions are K+ , Cl-, Ag+ and C2H3O2−. Note that potassium chloride (KCl), silver acetate (AgCH3CO2) and potassium acetate (KCH3CO2) are all quite soluble in water. Silver chloride (AgCl) is not particularly soluble in water (520 μg/100 g at 50 °C) and will precipitate out as the reaction occurs.
What will happen when potassium and water together what kind of changes?
When potassium metal and water are mixed, a chemical reaction occurs. This exothermic reaction produces hydrogen gas and potassium hydroxide, which dissolves in the remaining water. This reaction can be vigorous and produce light, heat and sound.
What type of reaction produces hydrogen gas?
In a hydrochloric acid and magnesium single replacement reaction, hydrogen is given off.
What is the explosive force of Potassium when it comes in contact with cold water?
The explosive force is the reaction of potassium with water liberating hydrogen.
The differences in the reactions of potassium magnesium and copper with water?
the diffrences in reaction of potassium, magnesium and copper
