How much potassium chlorate is in a gummy bear?

Uh you got it a bit mixed up in there. Gummy bears don't contain Potassium Chlorate they contain sugar, so when you drop a sugar-rich candy into molten Postassium Chlorate it will explode.


What are the stabilities of potassium chlorate?

Just keep that stuff away from things that could burn (clothing, paper, sugar, etc) and keep it away from all heat sources. It could turn molten, and molten potassium chlorate is a thousand times more reactive and very nasty.


Does potassium bromide conduct electricity when in molten state?

Yes, potassium bromide does conduct electricity when in a molten state. This is because the ions in the molten potassium bromide are free to move and carry electric charge, allowing it to conduct electricity.


Why is there an explosion when you mix potassium nitrate and sugar?

When potassium nitrate (oxidizer) and sugar (fuel) are mixed, the sugar reduces the potassium nitrate, releasing oxygen rapidly. This rapid oxygen release causes a highly exothermic reaction, leading to a sudden increase in temperature and pressure, resulting in an explosion.


Potassium chlorate--on heating potassium?

Despite that potassium chlorate catches on fire when it gets heated in the open, if you put it in a test tube and heat that, instead of burning it will melt into molten form, and this stage of potassium chlorate is extremely reactive, any contact with anything combustible like sugar would cause combustion of it. This is the basis for the famous gummy bear and potassium chlorate experiment. The sugar in the gummy bear would combust on contact with the molten potassium chlorate, resulting in an violent reaction.


How do you make potassium iodide?

you get potassium and mix it with iodine

Oxy-fuel welding and cutting process results in oxides that mix with the molten iron.


What are examples of molten salts?

For example chlorides of sodium, calcium, potassium.


How is potassium formed?

It is so reactive it has to be made by electrolysis of molten KCl


Why would molten potassium flouride conduct elctricity?

Molten potassium fluoride would conduct electricity because when it is in molten form, the ions become mobile and can carry electric charge through the material. This movement of charged particles allows for the flow of electric current.


Does molten sugar conduct electricity?

Yes, molten sugar can conduct electricity. When sugar is melted, it breaks down into its constituent molecules, which can carry an electric charge and allow for the flow of electricity. However, molten sugar is not a strong conductor of electricity compared to metals or other materials.
