The smoke bomb that I am making is made up of a ratio 3:5 sugar and Potassium nitrate. What is the chemical equation for this reaction when you heat the 2 together...like for example C12H22O11 + KNO3 ---%26gt; CO2+KNO4+H2. Anyone could help me with the correct equation?
Could anyone help me with a chemical equation for a smoke bomb?
See the link below for the whole discussion.
The quote below is from the second posting on the link by "woelen", and is not my own. Note that he gives a balanced equation, and your 3:5 ratio is probably not balanced. Still, the main reaction, which is pretty complex, would be the same. OK, here it is:
"The following reaction is a fairly good description. It is somewhat idealized, because you'll always have side reactions, where KNO2 and NOx are formed, but the main reaction is as follows:
5 C12H22O11 + 48 KNO3 ---%26gt; 24 K2CO3 + 55 H2O + 24 N2 + 36 CO2"
