What is the reaction between barium hydroxide and carbonic acid?

Answer 1

Feldspar, a major constituent of most igneous rocks, reacts with carbonic acid to produce residual clay minerals plus dissolved ions of metals (potassium, sodium or calcium, depending on the type of feldspar). Here, for example, is the reaction by which potassium feldspar is converted to kaolinite, a clay mineral: 4KAlSi3O8 + 4H2CO3 + 2H2O → Al4Si4O10(OH)8 + 4K+ + 4HCO3- + 8SiO2 feldspar + carbonic acid + water → kaolinite + dissolved potassium and bicarbonate ions + dissolved silica Similar reactions affect sodium feldspar and calcium feldspar.

Answer 2

I know it produced gas. There is a reaction. I have performed this reaction and it does indeed bubble and fizz. I mixed the two 50/50 by volume in water. I believe at least water is required for the reaction to take place. I believe it produces carbon dioxide and either potassium citrate or more specifically, possibly potassium tricitrate. This is only a speculation because I have seen potassium tricitrate available as a health supplement. The taste of the resulting solute is slighlty tart.

Answer 3

The reaction will form water and either potassium carbonate or potassium bicarbonate depending on the relative amounts of the reactants.

2KOH + H2CO3 --> 2H2O + K2CO3

or

KOH + H2CO3 --> H2O + KHCO3

Answer 4

2KOH + H2CO3 --> 2H2O + K2CO3

Two potassium hydroxide molecules and one carbonic acid molecule forms two water molecules and one potassium carbonate molecule.

Answer 5

reacts to give potassium carbonate.

Answer 7

Ba(OH)2 + H2CO3 yields BaCO3 + 2H2O

Answer 8
