help with kno3

[thecrazypoet]

i am doing some studies and i would like to know how to make KNO3 from nature i was told it could be made from amounia nitric and KOH or KCL

but where can i find amounia nitric

"i was told it could be made from amounia nitric and KOH or KCL"

By whom?

Would I be right in thinking that English wasn't their first language and/ or that they don't know a lot of chemistry?

Anyway,

The reaction of ammonium nitrate with KOH will give potassium nitrate but, as far as I know, there are no natural sources of ammonium nitrate.

thank you for your reply i saw videos mentioning ammonium nitrate with potassium hydroxide or potassium chloride

but then what is the easiest way to make KNO3 in a lab

keep in mind the only source of NO3 i have is HNO3 conc

i tried to add KOH in an aqua state to the acid but it was a really rough reaction and i could not continue

thanks again for your reply
