1) Write a balanced equation for the reaction between diprotic carbonic acid and monohydroxy compound named potassium hydroxide, each as aqueous solutions. Also give the two classes of this reaction.
So, H2CO3 for carbonic acid and KOH for potassium hydroxide. Is this some special type of reaction?
I got, H2CO3+2KOH ---> K2CO3 + 2H2O.
A double displacement. Is this right?

The equation is right. Balancing is right. This is an acid/base neutralization reaction.
