The most common oxidisers used in fireworks are: Potassium nitrate, KNO3 Barium nitrate, Ba(NO3)2 Strontium nitrate, Sr(NO3)2 Sodium nitrate, NaNO3 Potassium chlorate, KClO3 Potassium perchlorate, KClO4 Ammonium perchlorate, NH4ClO4
Oxygen is classified as a Class 3 oxidizer. Class 4 oxidizers are less reactive than Class 3 oxidizers like oxygen.
Mount St. Helens is generally regarded as an explosive volcano, but like most stratovolcanoes, it can produce both explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
No, Mauna Loa is not an explosive volcano. It tends to be non-explosive.
Yes. Stratovolcanoes usually alternate between explosive and non-explosive eruptions.
Mount Shasta is considered a potentially explosive stratovolcano due to its composition of andesite and dacite lava which can lead to explosive eruptions. However, its most recent eruptions have been relatively non-explosive with mainly effusive lava flows.
sorry- we don't give advice on making explosives. --------- The gun powder is a mixture of sulfur, potassium nitrate (or sodium nitrate( and granulated charcoal. Nitrates act as oxidants.
Nitrogen and sulfur are good oxidizers probably because of their valence electron numbers.
Methane is extremely flammable and may form explosive mixtures with air. Methane is violently reactive with oxidizers, halogens, and some halogen-containing compounds. Methane is also an asphyxiant and may displace oxygen in an enclosed space.
Fluorine is a pale yellow gas and very reactive. Chlorine is a pale green - which could look yellow depending on the lighting. it too is highly reactive. Of the two, you would probably be looking for fluorine as the best answer.
Class 5
When using oxidizers, it is important to wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. Ensure good ventilation in the area where oxidizers are being used to prevent exposure to fumes. Store oxidizers away from flammable materials and follow strict handling and storage guidelines to prevent accidental reactions or spills that could lead to a fire or explosion.
Division 5.1 contains oxidizers.
Physical
Modern fireworks are made of paper, oxidizers, metals, fuels, and reducing agents. The different oxidizers in the firework make the different colors people see in the sky.
Oxidizers work in chemical reactions by accepting electrons from other substances, causing them to be oxidized. This process can lead to the release of energy and the formation of new chemical compounds.
Potassium Chlorate does not decompose on its own, it needs to be mixed with other compounds in order for it to decompose, however this is very dangerous because the mixture is very explosive and very sensitive, which means if you accidentally stepped on it or impacted it , it will go off giving you some serious injuries. If you ever worked in a lab or if you have ever seen the Potassium Chlorate bottles, they are usually written "Mixing with Oxidizers may be explosive" sometimes it just says "Do not mix with oxidizers" these are the warnings you would get on the label or MSDS sheets.
it's not acid... it is corrosion and oxidizers
