When it is acted upon by an outside force
Potassium oxide has the antifluorite structure. The antifluorite structure have compounds with the stoichiometry X₂Y, where X is the cation and Y is the anion. In the antifluorite structure <span>positions of the </span>cations<span> and </span>anions<span> are reversed relative to their positions in calcium fluoride.</span>
Potassium ions coordinated to 4 oxide ions, <span>potassium ions are all in the tetrahedral holes.</span>
