Sibeiko Lady Rai Tedie Behr let's see if i remember anything from gen chem. xD
well, you could try writing the balanced equations and seeing if you end up with any solids in the product. that'll tell you if you get a precipitate, which can turn the solution cloudy.
because i feel like it (and because this is more interesting than reading john steinbeck) i'ma try to demonstrate what i'm talking about.
potassium carbonate: K2CO3 hydrochloric acid: HCl
soooo
K2CO3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) ---> 2KCl(aq) + H2CO3(aq)
so it shouldn't turn cloudy since everything is soluble in water (i believe - i might be wrong).
also wtf @ the color thing. that's just weird. o-O We were mixing chemicals in class the other day that ended up turning blood red. ._. *looks at chemicals, then rereads post* uhm... that... doesn't make sense... K+ is either purple, or yellow... I forget... but nothing there should be red... If it had some iron, maybe, but... that's odd... o.o Read well, Sibby. It just says "We were mixing chemicals," not "We were mixing those chemicals" or something of that sort... So the chemicals are not specified.

...have you tried it yourself?

...have you tried it yourself?NI3 (Nitrogen Triiodide) is an extremely sensitive contact explosive... that also happens to release iodine which tends to stain things purple... o_o
