Thermal decomposition of KHCO3 to KOH ?

[piateczka]

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to thermally decompose KHCO3 to KOH; perhaps it is possible but some specific conditions are required.

I know that KHCO3 decomposes into K2CO3, H2O and CO2 but the question is if it could decompose to KOH?

Thanks!

No.

And by the way, it's not necessary or desireable to post the same question on three different forums.
