I need some help with this please. The reaction is:

2KOH(aq) + H2CO3(aq) ------> K2CO3(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Ok so all of these are soluble right? I'm assuming all of them can be split into ions. I know that you split them into ions and then cancel the identical ones. I need some help with splitting them into ions though...I get lost with all of the charges and everything. Help please!

  1. 2 K+ + 2 OH- + 2 H+ + CO32- >> 2 K+ + CO32- + 2H2O

    net ionic

    2 OH- + 2 H+ >> 2 H2O


  2. the equation is balanced.the net ionic equation:2H^+  +  2OH^ - =2H2O
