They will have different elemental amounts.

Chloride will have more potassium per measure than the citrate.

Potassium citrate= Pure potassium citrate contains 38.28% potassium.

Potassium chloride == 52.45% potassium

Many supplement labels do not give elemental values.
I explain this concept on the Magnesium thread.

Potassium citrate is used RX for treating certain types of kidney stones, as it solubilizes certain other minerals.
