Cream of tartar

The article says that cream of tartar is another name for potassium carbonate, but the link redirects to potassium bitartrate. Which is right? 74.104.224.144 21:48, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Solvay process

Is it worth mentioning that potassium carbonate cannot be made by the Solvay process due to the high solubility of potassium bicarbonate? Although I can't find any direct references stating this, I am almost sure this is the case. Chris Barile 23:38, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Highly flammable"

It makes no sense to me that this substance could be highly flammable if it has a red zero in its safety box. Evercat (talk) 18:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This compound is not flammable ! User:Jjd323 (Talk) introduced the flammable info 10 Nov 2008 with other edits to R-S phrases, while I have not checked these other edits searching background references, they seem OK. Jjd323 must have confused the flammability issue. Power.corrupts (talk) 12:46, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pearl Ash

Directly under the "Applications" heading, the substance Pearl Ash is referred to as both Pearl Ash and Pearlash in a single sentence. Please could this be corrected. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.86.124.46 (talk) 12:58, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, VERY Toxic

Is this stuff toxic? I just discovered some leaking NiMH batteries, and I'm sure some of the crystals got onto the carpet. Is it OK if a baby crawls around and ends up getting some of it into his mouth? Answer: If I were you, I'd let the Potassium Carbonate dissolve through the floor before you let the infant get it into its system...—Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.231.150.231 (talk) 09:28, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
