Under what circumstances can sodium hydroxide in organic reactions can replace potassium hydroxide

The price of potassium hydroxide is about three times the price of sodium hydroxide

KOH, strong alkali, more expensive potassium salt, KCL+H2O ----- KOH+CL2+H2; \u0026 nbsp; \u0026 nbsp; naCl+H2O ----- Naoh+CL2+H2.
Potassium salt is more expensive, so potassium hydroxide is also more expensive than sodium hydroxide. There are a large amount of sodium hydroxide in the chlorine industry. Moreover, the alkaline of potassium hydroxide will react with the carbon dioxide in the air.Both sodium hydroxide.Without considering the price factor, instead use potassium hydroxide. This may not have relevant experience, which may be a factor of alkaline size.

\u0026 nbsp; \u0026 nbsp; I am very happy to succeed, increase my confidence

Sometimes it can be replaced, after all, the two are not much different.For example: some ester hydrolysis reactions are hydroxide ions.
There are any problems with the intermediate of the dependent of the intermediate of the nuclear reactant.
In addition to the alkaline size and price factors, the solubility of potassium salt is much better than sodium salt. If the reaction is considered as one factor, potassium salt is better.
Practice is better than talking on paper, and you can know if you can replace it by yourself.

Thank you, I also plan to do experiments

If the requirements are not high.

We just replace the original potassium hydroxide into sodium hydroxide, and the effect is very good.

The alkaline difference between the two is still quite large. If you want to change the alkali, it is estimated that the reaction conditions must be changed accordingly

Some can not have it, it depends on the specific response.

Hello.I would like to ask, \"No\" means that it cannot be responded or too low, or other issues?

Thank you, maybe the organic response is so complicated.
