Potassium carbonate is the inorganic compound with the formula K 2 C O 3.It is a white salt, which is soluble in water and forms a strongly alkaline solution. It is deliquescent, often appearing as a damp or wet solid.
Molar mass: 100.115 g/mol Appearance white crystals Odor: odorless Density: 2.17 g/cm 3: Melting point: 292 °C (558 °F; 565 K) (decomposes) Solubility in water.
Note that the especially high molar values, as for paraffin, gasoline, water and ammonia, result from calculating specific heats in terms of moles of molecules. If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol ...
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
It contains 38.28% potassium by mass. In the monohydrate form, it is highly hygroscopic and deliquescent. As a food additive, potassium citrate is used to regulate acidity, and is known as E number E332. Medicinally, it may be used to control kidney stones derived from uric acid or cystine.

Molar mass: 212.27 g/mol Appearance White deliquescent powder Density: 2.564 g/cm 3 (17 °C) Melting point: 1,380 °C (2,520 °F; 1,650 K) Solubility in water.
Equivalent weights may be calculated from molar masses if the chemistry of the substance is well known: sulfuric acid has a molar mass of 98.078(5) g mol −1, and supplies two moles of hydrogen ions per mole of sulfuric acid, so its equivalent weight is 98.078(5) g mol −1 /2 eq mol −1 = 49.039(3) g eq −1.
