1 Potassium is made, along with several other elements including sulfur, and silicon, during explosive oxygen burning in supernovae. 2  All plants need potassium to survive; over 90% of all human use of potassium compounds is in the manufacture of plant fertilizers.
Potassium is an extremely active metal that reacts violently with oxygen and water in air. With oxygen it forms potassium peroxide, and with water potassium forms potassium hydroxide. The reaction of potassium with water is dangerous because of its violent exothermic character and the production of hydrogen gas.
