peer agreement (net): +3potassium hydrocarbonate Explanation: another name for potassium bicarbonate I believe. One of these two would be OK I think -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-25 14:53:37 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- But in fact this list from ICR also gives potassium hydrogen carbonate as a synonym: http://www.algol.fi/algol/russiawww.nsf/pages/1products?Open... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-25 14:54:25 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- My suspicion is that hydrogen carbonate is the least commonly used of the three. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-25 15:00:11 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The following link shows potassium bicarbonate as having the chemical symbol: KHCO3 http://www.ahperformance.com/products/pobi.html The link below confirms that this is the same as Potassium Hydrogen Carbonate http://www.ijvs.com/spectra/spectra.htm Ignore my comment about potassium hydrogen carbonate being the least common! potassium bicarbonate gets around 50,000 hits on google potassium hydrogen carbonate gets around 25,000 potassium hydrocarbonate only a few hundred So perhaps best to go with bicarbonate. Certainly as a product name in commercial spheres this is going to be more used than hydrogen carbonate, which is perhaps a more accurate chemical description... |
