Potassium chloride is a greyish white liquid.
A:Actually, Potassium Chloride (KCl) in it's pure form is a translucent/white solid, much like table salt (NaCl). You can buy it in the form of NoSalt.It forms a cubic crystal.
In its natural mineral form, sylvite, it will have varying red and yellow colors based on impurities.

Potassium is a very reactive metal. It is not handled with ones hands as it reacts violently with water and our skin has water in it. It is kept under oil to keep moisture away.
It is usually a dull grey when a piece is withdrawn from its oily bed but, as it is very soft, it easy to cut. The fresh cut is a beautiful shiny silver. The silver will tarnish to dull grey because of the oxygen in the atmosphere.
Potassium is called an Alkali Metal as it produces an alkaline solution when it reacts with water.
You can see all the alkali metals with water in this link.
