Instant Fire. Potassium chlorate, KClO 3, is a white, crystalline or powdery solid which is a very good oxidizing agent; it is used in explosives, fireworks, matches, etc. When it decomposes under heating (especially in the presence of a manganese catalyst), it releases molecular oxygen, O 2 : 2KClO 3 (s) â.
KO 2 (s) + K(s) K 2 O(s). Because potassium oxide is more stable than potassium superoxide, this reaction gives off enough energy to boil potassium metal off the surface, which reacts explosively with the oxygen and water vapor in the atmosphere. Active Metals and Water.
