Materials Data on K2CO3 by Materials Project
K2CO3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.88–3.29 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form face-sharing KO6 octahedra. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–2.77 Å. C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.31 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five K1+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four K1+ and one C4+ atom.
