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!

Do you really believe you'll get better attention if you triple post the same query???

The real result is that you will get few - if any - replies because we all don't know what is where and who is responding and confusion will reign. Please don't post the same, identical query more than once.

 
Sorry, I am meant - It will NOT happen again.
