Thermal decomposition of KHCO3 to KOH ?

Thermal decomposition of KHCO3 to KOH ?

(OP)
Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to thermally decompose KHCO3 to KOH; perhaps it is possible but some specific conditions are required.

I know that KHCO3 decomposes into K2CO3, H2O and CO2 but the question is if it could decompose to KOH?

Thanks!

RE: Thermal decomposition of KHCO3 to KOH ?

No.

And by the way, it's not necessary or desireable to post the same question on three different forums.
