- Endpoint:
- viscosity
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid

- solid
Combining three handbook results, potassium nitrate could be described as a colourless crystalline solid or a white crystalline or granular powder.
-The CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (80th ed.) describes potassium nitrate as colourless, rhombohedral crystals or powder.
-The Merck Index (12th ed.) describes potassium nitrate as colourless transparent prisms or a white granular or crystalline powder.
-Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials (9th. ed.) describes potasium nitrate as transparent, colourless or white crystalline powder or orthorhombic crystals.
