Materials Data on KP(HO2)2 by Materials Project
KH2PO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent H1+ and ten O2- atoms. Both K–H bond lengths are 2.85 Å. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.78–3.33 Å. P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.55 Å) and two longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. There are two inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent O2- atoms. Both H–O bond lengths are 1.21 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both H–O bond lengths are 1.20 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to three equivalent K1+, one P5+, and one H1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+, one P5+, and one H1+ atom.
