KHCO3 is a white crystal. Its melting point is 292 ̊C (557.6 ̊F), density 2.17 g/cm3. KHCO3 can be used in baking similar like soda. It can also be used as pH regulator.
Example Reactions:
• KOH + CO2 = KHCO3
• KHCO3 + HCl = KCl + H2O + CO2
• HBr + KHCO3 = KBr + CO2 + H2O
• KHCO3 + HCl = KCl + H2CO3
• HI + KHCO3 = CO2 + H2O + KI
• CuHCO3 + KBr = CuBr + KHCO3
• HNO3 + KHCO3 = H2O + CO2 + KNO3
• C6H8O6 + KHCO3 = KC6H7O6 + H2O + CO2
• KI + NaHCO3 = KHCO3 + NaI
• NaHCO3 + KMnO4 = NaMnO4 + KHCO3
