Product Code : SCL-LC-12260
Potassium Chloride (SKU SCL-LC-12260) is an inorganic chloride salt, KCl, used in supervised chemistry practicals for solution preparation, conductivity measurements, chloride-ion tests and lessons on ionic compounds. School and college chemistry labs, science departments and institutional tenders are its main buyers. Science Lab Supplies, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India, arranges supply from Ambala for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Potassium chloride has the formula KCl and is listed under CAS 7447-40-7. It dissolves in water to give potassium and chloride ions, which is why it appears in so many conductivity and electrolyte lessons. Grade, assay, physical form and pack size are stated on the quotation and batch label.

Applications and Experiments for Potassium Chloride
Because its solutions conduct electricity predictably, potassium chloride is the usual salt for conductivity work and for salt bridges in electrochemical cells. 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 and salt bridges.
- Salt analysis: tests for the potassium ion and the chloride ion.
- Ionic compounds, electrolytes and dissociation in water.
- B.Sc. physical chemistry: conductometric practicals using KCl solutions.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit is one pack of potassium chloride with a batch label, the Safety Data Sheet, shelf-life details and the transport documents. 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.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal and Bangladesh. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Start with the contact page or the enquiry cart; buyers working to a tender can use the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this potassium chloride be used for food or medical purposes?
No. It is sold as a laboratory chemical only and must not be used as a food ingredient, medicine, electrolyte supplement or clinical material.
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 and the Safety Data Sheet available.
Who supplies the Potassium Chloride?
Our Ambala, India team at Science Lab Supplies handles supply, and each quotation to a school, college or distributor confirms the grade, form and pack size of the salt.
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 and Chloride Salts
Halide and potassium-salt practicals compare several salts side by side. These four from the same lab-chemical range add the bromide and iodide of potassium, a nitrate for solubility work and a second chloride for ion tests, so the set can be quoted in one go.
- Potassium Bromide — KBr halide salt for bromide-ion demonstrations.
- Potassium Iodide — iodide salt for starch-iodine tests and iodometric work.
- Potassium Nitrate — nitrate salt for solubility and crystallisation lessons.
- Ammonium Chloride — chloride salt for ammonium tests and buffer preparation.
