NITER (Potassium Nitrate) (518 words) |
 | Niter is most similar to the orthorhombic carbonates or those carbonates that belong to the Aragonite Group, specifically aragonite, witherite, strontianite and cerussite. |
 | The structures of niter and the members of the Aragonite Group are analogous and they therefore share many similar properties such as symmetry and crystal habits. |
 | For niter the flame should be violet, an indicator of potassium, and for nitratine the flame should be yellow, an indicator of sodium. |
