Potassium Chloride
Product Code : SCL-LC-12260
Potassium Chloride (SKU SCL-LC-12260) is an inorganic chloride salt, KCl, for supervised chemistry practicals on solution preparation, conductivity, chloride-ion tests and ionic compounds. It suits school and college chemistry laboratories, science departments and institutional tenders where trained staff follow approved procedures. Science Lab Supplies, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India, assembles quotations for it in Ambala for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The potassium chloride table runs from formula and CAS number through handling, storage and paperwork, one fact per row. In short, it is KCl, CAS 7447-40-7, a salt that dissolves in water to give potassium and chloride ions for electrolyte and conductivity lessons; grade, assay, physical form and pack size are stated on the quotation and batch label.

Applications and Experiments for Potassium Chloride
Potassium chloride solutions can be used to show how dissolved ions carry current, so the salt fits conductivity demonstrations and comparative salt-solution activities. It is equally useful for teaching dissociation, solubility and chloride-ion identification, and for preparing standard laboratory solutions where the approved procedure allows.
- Class 12 electrochemistry: conductivity of electrolyte solutions.
- Salt analysis: tests for the potassium ion and the chloride ion.
- Ionic compounds, electrolytes and dissociation in water, with solutions made up in graduated Chemical Glasses (Beaker) 100ml.
- B.Sc. physical chemistry: conductometric practicals, with water measured in a Measuring Cylinder 25ml graduated every 0.25 ml.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one pack of potassium chloride, sent with a batch label, the Safety Data Sheet, expiry or shelf-life details and the transport documents for the consignment. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
From a single pack to stock for a district’s school labs, any quantity can be quoted, and the quotation states packing, delivery time and price for it. Other potassium salts and school chemistry lab equipment in India can be listed on the same document.
With its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal and Bangladesh. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). A price for one pack or a district quantity follows a note on the contact page or a list placed in the enquiry cart; tender-led purchases go via the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this potassium chloride be used for food or medical purposes?
No. It is a laboratory chemical only and must not be used as a food ingredient, medicine, electrolyte supplement or clinical material, nor marketed for any of those purposes.
Is potassium chloride suitable for school chemistry labs?
Yes. It suits supervised school and college practicals when trained staff follow approved procedures, with gloves and eye protection worn and the Safety Data Sheet available.
Who supplies the Potassium Chloride?
Each school, college or distributor enquiry for this chloride salt is answered by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, with a quotation confirming the grade, form and pack size.
What grade is supplied?
Grade, assay and purity are confirmed for each batch on the label and quotation. Mention the grade your practical, conductivity work or tender needs when you enquire.
Related Potassium Salts, Chlorides and Conductivity Apparatus
Halide and potassium-salt practicals compare several salts side by side. These items add the bromide, iodide and nitrate of potassium, further chlorides and nitrates for ion tests, and a conductivity apparatus, so a full electrolyte lesson can be quoted in one go.
- Potassium Bromide — KBr, CAS 7758-02-3, for halide-salt lessons.
- Potassium Iodide — KI for iodine solution preparation and redox lessons.
- Potassium Nitrate — KNO3, an oxidising nitrate for solubility and ionic-reaction work.
- Ammonium Chloride — NH4Cl for qualitative salt analysis and buffer chemistry.
- Magnesium Chloride Crystal — crystalline magnesium chloride, anhydrous or hexahydrate.
- Sodium Nitrate — NaNO3, an oxidizer for ionic-compound and solubility lessons.
