To do what:2KOH + CO2 --> K2CO3 + H2O
neutralisation reaction
Definately, CO2 absorbed by KOH or NaOH. But it require enormously large quantity of KOH or NaOH. KOH is more effective to absorb CO2, because NaOH also absorb water. So I don't think that this is the treatment of global warming.
HCOOH + KOH -> HCOOK + H2O (or HCCO-K+ + H20
KOH (potassium hydroxide)It depends on which form of potash you mean - check out the related link to Wikipedia for a list of the different types.
Most reactions with KOH are in solution with water: acid-base reactions, only by the OH- ions: (OH-)aq + (NH4+)aq --> (NH3)g + H2O But also solid KOH could react e.g. with CO2: 2KOH + CO2 --> K2CO3 + H2O KOH doesn't exist (is not stable, decomposes) in gaseous state at high temperatures.
HNO3+KOH produce KNO3.Also K2CO3 can be used.
Perform a acid-base titration with a strong acid with a known concentration. Don't forget to measure the exact mass or the molarity of KOH/K2CO3.Repeat this determination several times to find the right equivalence point, this is important by these kind of quality controls. Then you can calculate the molar ratio of KOH/K2CO3.(V*C)acid = (V*C)base C= concentration and V = volume
2 KOH + H2CO3 = 2 H2O + K2CO3
It is certainly possible to buy pure KOH from any standard chemical company. If you are asking about how it occurs in nature, I don't know.
The balanced equation is this: 2K + 2H2O --> 2KOH + H2
LEAVES absorb sunlight and turn it into food. this process is called photosynthisis.
