Materials Data on K3PO4 by Materials Project
K3PO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.15 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.60–2.93 Å. P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.56 Å) and two longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five K1+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five K1+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one P5+ atom.
