Question

Write the chemical equations. Potassium reacting with cold water ​

Answer 1

Answer:

To produce potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, potassium reacts violently with cold water. During the process, much heat is generated that the hydrogen gas generated caught on fire and rapidly burns. 2K(s)+ 2H2O(l) → 2KOH(aq) + H2(g) + heat.

Answer 2

Answer:

Potassium metal reacts with water to give potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Chemical equation: 2K(s)+2H2O(l)→2KOH(aq)+H2(g)
