Potassium oxide is produced from the reaction of oxygen and potassium; this reaction affords potassium peroxide, K 2 O 2. Treatment of the peroxide with potassium produces the oxide: [5] K 2O 2 + 2 K → 2 K 2 O. Alternatively and more conveniently, K 2 O is synthesized by heating potassium nitrate with metallic potassium: 2 KNO 3 + 10 K → 6 ...

The following list has substances known to be gases, but with an unknown boiling point. Fluoroamine; Trifluoromethyl trifluoroethyl trioxide CF 3 OOOCF 2 CF 3 boils between 10 and 20° [142] Bis-trifluoromethyl carbonate boils between −10 and +10° [37] possibly +12, freezing −60° [143]
The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
Potassium carbonate, formed from the hydroxide solution leaking from an alkaline battery. Aqueous potassium hydroxide is employed as the electrolyte in alkaline batteries based on nickel-cadmium, nickel-hydrogen, and manganese dioxide-zinc. Potassium hydroxide is preferred over sodium hydroxide because its solutions are more conductive. [20]
Four oxides of potassium are well studied: potassium oxide (K 2 O), potassium peroxide (K 2 O 2), potassium superoxide (KO 2) [25] and potassium ozonide (KO 3). The binary potassium-oxygen compounds react with water forming KOH. KOH is a strong base. Illustrating its hydrophilic character, as much as 1.21 kg of KOH can dissolve in a single ...
Fermi melting point of valence electrons for superconductivity; 14.01 K, melting point of bound hydrogen; 20.28 K, boiling point of bound hydrogen; 33 K, critical temperature of hydrogen
R is the ideal gas constant. M is the molar mass of the solvent. T f is the freezing point of the pure solvent in kelvin. ΔH fus is the molar enthalpy of fusion of the solvent. The K f for water is 1.853 K kg mol −1. [1]
