(NH4)2CO3 + 2KOH → 2NH3 + K2CO3 + H2O
In this reaction, ammonium carbonate ((NH4)2CO3) reacts with potassium hydroxide (KOH) to produce ammonia (NH3), potassium carbonate (K2CO3), and water (H2O). The reaction involves a double displacement reaction, where the positively charged ammonium ions (NH4+) from ammonium carbonate exchange with the positively charged potassium ions (K+) from potassium hydroxide, and the negatively charged carbonate ions (CO32-) from ammonium carbonate exchange with the negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) from potassium hydroxide, resulting in the formation of the products.
