This document delves into the thermodynamic processes involved in the formation of potassium oxide (K2O) from potassium (K) and oxygen (O). It covers key elements such as electron affinities, ionization enthalpies, lattice energies, and bond dissociation energies. The calculations detail the contributions of each process to the overall enthalpy change for the formation reaction, providing insights into the stability and reactivity of potassium oxide under various conditions.
