What are some Potassium Oxidizers?

or do you mean like: Nitrate, (per)chlorate, persulphate, perborate, percarbonate, etc... ?

I'm guessing thts what KFC is asking based on past questions :)

 

Goggle the names, should return safety sheets and information on the compounds.

Pretty much anything in existance will oxidize potassium. :)

I Mean Like Potassium Nitrate or Potassium Persulphate.

Want is the best Oxidizer that you can buy practically.

if you mean out of "household" chems that a kiddy can buy, probaly a mixture of Potassium and Ammonium Persulphate (usualy a 50/50 mix).

although Sodium Percarbonate is good too!

Is Ammonium dichromate a better Oxidizer Ammonium Nitrate or Potassium Nitrate for a rocket propellant.

its worse, becuase youll get a bunch of chromium oxide, nad it wouldnbt work very well. Plus its more expensive. Go with KNO3. AN is alot harder to work with because its hard to light AN motors.

Does Anyone Know The Best(As In What Would Go The Highest) Propellant But No Flash(Smoke, Or Glitter) Stuff.

Does Anyone Know The Best(As In What Would Go The Highest) Propellant But No Flash(Smoke, Or Glitter) Stuff.

 

Hmm.... Liquid Oxygen and something like [ce]N2O[/ce] in a special plastic tube (Partially as fuel, partially as a container for combustion) is what rocketeers use I believe.

 

I don't think you'll be able to get hold of liquid [ce]O2[/ce] very easily as for the [ce]N2O[/ce] it can be madequite easily.

 

Other types include from an oxidizer such as ammonium perchlorate or ammonium nitrate and then a fule source which is nomally solid.

 

You can use Google to find more information.

Potassium dichromate [math]K_2 Cr_2 O_7 [/math] is used as a powerful oxidising agent.

If I Add Equal Part Pure Hydrogen And Pure Chlorine In A Vial Will It Make Hydrochloric Acid Think It Will I'm Just Verifying It?

umm Hydrogen + Chlorine wont become liquid it needs to be diluted in water (mabye bubbled thro water not sure)

  • Author
it will after it explodes, yes.

 

 

Would It Brake The Vial?

Would It Brake The Vial?

 

Yes it would. Literally explodes.

 

Don't try it lest you get noxious gasses everywhere. (HCl being a gas is not something you want to breath in).

I Did It And It Didn't Explode. It Didn't Do Anything Visible.

I Did It And It Didn't Explode. It Didn't Do Anything Visible.

 

That was clever, trying it after a warning. It does explode if it did not then you did it wrong.

 

I'm sorry to say it but the fact you tried it despite the warnings causes me concern :-(

 

Cheers,
