Question

What happens when KCl is added to H2O

Answer 1

Potassium chloride does not react with water. It will dissolve though, resulting in ionisation. These ions may be separated out by electrolysis, resulting in free chlorine which is highly reactive though, and metallic potassium which does react with water. To get these elements by themselves, you can pass electricity through a vat of molten potassium chloride.

Answer 2

• Potassium Chloride will not react with Water as it is the product of reaction between Potassium Hydroxide and Hydrochloric Acid.

• It will only dissolve in water like a normal salt which results in ionisation…
