The reaction is followed by purification steps such as recrystallization and filtration to get the purified product.

Properties of Ammonium Chlorate

Ammonium Chlorate is a white or colorless solid having the molecular formula ClH4NO3 and a molecular weight of 101.49 g/mol. It is odorless. It has a density of 2.42 g/cm³. It has a melting point of 380 °C (716 °F) (decomposes). It does not have a specific boiling point as it decomposes before boiling. It is soluble in water, with a solubility of 28.7 g/100 mL at 20 °C, which increases to 115 g/100 mL at 75 °C. It is sensitive to heat, friction, and shock and may explode when in concentrated form or when mixed with reducing agents. Its solutions unstable, mainly in concentrated forms. It is a strong oxidizer and can react vigorously with combustible materials, leading to spontaneous ignition under certain conditions.
