Fireworks is released at once. Similar to a chrysanthemum, but with long-burning silver or gold stars that produce a soft, dome-shaped weeping willow-like effect. Fireworks pose risks of injury to people, and of damage, largely as a fire hazard. Fireworks produce smoke and dust that may contain residues of heavy metals, sulfur-coal compounds and some low concentration toxic chemicals. These by-products of fireworks combustion will vary depending on the mix of ingredients of a particular firework. (The color green, for instance, may be produced by adding the various compounds and salts of barium, some of which are toxic, and some of
Silver chlorate of chlorine through a suspension of silver oxide. Silver chlorate Silver chlorate (AgClO) forms white, tetragonal crystals. Like all chlorates, it is water-soluble and an oxidizing agent. As a simple metal salt, it is a common chemical in basic inorganic chemistry experiments. It is light-sensitive, so it must be stored in tightly closed dark-coloured containers. The substance exhibits blasting properties, therefore it is sometimes used as a primary explosive. Silver(I) means silver is in its normal +1 oxidation state. Silver chlorate is produced by the reaction of silver nitrate with sodium chlorate to produce both silver chlorate and sodium nitrate.
