Write the reaction equations: Potassium → Potassium hydroxide → Potassium carbonate;

To carry out transformations along the above chain, we need to perform the following reactions:

The reaction between potassium and water, as a result of the reaction, potassium hydroxide is formed and hydrogen is released.

2 K + 2 H2O = 2 KOH + H2

The second reaction is the reaction of interaction of potassium hydroxide and carbon dioxide, as a result of the reaction, potassium carbonate and water are formed.

KOH + CO2 = K2CO3 + H2O.
