Answer: The elements present are potassium, nitrogen and oxygen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elements are defined as the substances in which same type of atoms are present. For Example: Sodium, Chlorine etc.

The chemical formula of the compound used in fireworks is
KNO_3

The chemical name for the compound is potassium nitrate.

This compound is formed by the combination of three elements. In 1 mole of potassium nitrate, 1 mole of potassium atom, 1 mole of nitrogen atom and 3 moles of oxygen atoms are present.

Hence, the elements present are potassium, nitrogen and oxygen.
