Message definition (Potassium)
KOH is a [[strong base]]. Illustrating its [[hydrophilic]] character, as much as 1.21 [[kilogram|kg]] of KOH can dissolve in a single liter of water. Anhydrous KOH is rarely encountered. KOH reacts readily with [[carbon dioxide]] ({{chem2|CO2}}) to produce [[potassium carbonate]] ({{chem2|K2CO3}}), and in principle could be used to remove traces of the gas from air. Like the closely related [[sodium hydroxide]], KOH reacts with [[fat]]s to produce [[soap]]s.
