Potassium Bicarbonate USP Grade Specifications
KHCO3 100.12
Carbonic acid, monopotassium salt.
Monopotassium carbonate [298-14-6].
Potassium Bicarbonate contains not less than 99.5 percent and not more than 101.5 percent of KHCO3, calculated on the dried basis.
Identification: A solution (1 in 10) responds to the tests for Potassium and for Bicarbonate .
Loss on drying: Dry it over silica gel for 4 hours: it loses not more than 0.3% of its weight.
Normal carbonate: Grind 3.0 g of Potassium Bicarbonate with 25 mL of alcohol and 5 mL of water in a porcelain mortar. Add 3 drops of PhPh TS, and titrate slowly with barium chloride solution, prepared by dissolving 12.216 g of barium chloride in 300 mL of water and diluting with alcohol to obtain 1000 mL of solution, until the suspension becomes colorless. Continue the grinding for 2 minutes, and if the color turns pink, continue the titration with the barium chloride solution to a colorless end-point. Repeat the grinding for 2 minutes and the addition of the barium chloride solution, if necessary, until the suspension is colorless after 2 minutes of grinding. Each mL of the barium chloride solution is equivalent to 6.911 mg of K2CO3: not more than 2.5% is found.
Heavy metals: To pass the test: the limit is 0.001%.

Potassium, Hydrogen Carbonate, Ph Eur
KHCO3 100.1 298-14-6
DEFINITION
Content: 99.0 per cent to 101.0 per cent.
CHARACTERS
Appearance: White or almost white, crystalline powder or colourless crystals.
Solubility: Freely soluble in water, practically insoluble in ethanol (96 per cent).
When heated in the dry state or in solution, it is gradually converted to potassium carbonate.
IDENTIFICATION
A. To 5 mL of solution S (see Tests) add 0.1 mL of PhPh solution. A pale pink
colour is produced. Heat; gas is evolved and the colour becomes red.
B. It gives the reaction of carbonates and bicarbonates.
C. 1 mL of solution S gives reaction (b) of potassium.
TESTS
Solution S: Dissolve 5.0 g in 90 mL of carbon dioxide-free water prepared from distilled water and dilute to 100 mL with the same solvent.
Appearance of solution: Solution S is clear and colourless.
Carbonates: The pH of freshly prepared solution S is not greater than 8.6.
Chlorides: Maximum 150 ppm.
Sulfates: Maximum 150 ppm.
Ammonium: Maximum 20 ppm.
Calcium: Maximum 100 ppm.
Iron: Maximum 20 ppm, determined on solution S.
Sodium: Maximum 0.5 per cent.
Atomic emission spectrometry: To pass the test.
Heavy metals: Maximum 10 ppm.

Barter
They who love thee on this earth, keep calling on thee and chanting thy beads
Lest thou forgetest.
They assign the credit of their hard work to your blessings
They keep you amused.
They come to thy temple with baskets of fruits, as if you were a glutton
They deny the same to their children.
They offer you milk for a bath and burn the ghee
They hardly understand the meaning of it.
They bring gold and diamonds. They come with beating of drums
They love to advertise their offerings.
They offer you a small bribe as advance for booty, called lottery
They love to dream.
I do not bow down at your door
I do not bargain for booty
Your promise of the heaven does not lure me
Your hell-fire does not scare me
I do not even know the proper method of prayer
I do not offer any thing to you
Ages have gone by and I have not seen you my lord
Yet my love for you keeps waiting for you
