  2. Potassium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chloride

    Potassium chloride (KCl, or potassium salt) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. It is odorless and has a white or colorless vitreous crystal appearance. The solid dissolves readily in water, and its solutions have a salt -like taste.

  3. Potassium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chlorate

    KCl + NaClO 3 → NaCl + KClO 3. It can also be produced by passing chlorine gas into a hot solution of caustic potash: [8] 3 Cl 2 + 6 KOH → KClO 3 + 5 KCl + 3 H 2 O as seen in this video. According to X-ray crystallography, potassium chlorate is a dense salt-like structure consisting of chlorate and potassium ions in close association.

  4. Aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous_solution

    If the substance lacks the ability to dissolve in water, the molecules form a precipitate. [3] When writing the equations of precipitation reactions, it is essential to determine the precipitate. To determine the precipitate, one must consult a chart of solubility. Soluble compounds are aqueous, while insoluble compounds are the precipitate.

  5. Solid solution - Wikipedia

    a solid solution mixes with others to form a new solution The phase diagram in the above diagram displays an alloy of two metals which forms a solid solution at all relative concentrations of the two species. In this case, the pure phase of each element is of the same crystal structure, and the similar properties of the two elements allow for ...

    Potassium chlorite forms orthorhombic cmcm crystals and has been reported to decompose within hours at room temperature. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is an oxidizing agent. Synthesis

  7. Ionic crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_crystal

    In chemistry, an ionic crystal is a crystalline form of an ionic compound. They are solids consisting of ions bound together by their electrostatic attraction into a regular lattice . Examples of such crystals are the alkali halides , including potassium fluoride (KF), potassium chloride (KCl), potassium bromide (KBr), potassium iodide (KI ...

  8. List of particles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_particles

    Since then, the particle has been shown to behave, interact, and decay in many of the ways predicted for Higgs particles by the Standard Model, as well as having even parity and zero spin, two fundamental attributes of a Higgs boson. This also means it is the first elementary scalar particle discovered in nature.

  9. Solvation shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation_shell

    The solvation shell number of a dissolved electrolyte can be linked to the statistical component of the activity coefficient of the electrolyte and to the ratio between the apparent molar volume of a dissolved electrolyte in a concentrated solution and the molar volume of the solvent (water): [clarification needed]
