As given ; NOTHING!!!!

If you mean

2K + 2H2O = 2KOH + H2

Note the use of capital letters and the '+/=' signs.

It is the potassium / water reaction, which is violent to the point of ignition or explosion.

The heat of the reaction, which has liberated hydrogen, then makes the hydrogen ignite and form water. (The explosion!!!!).

It is similar to but more violent than, the sodium/water reaction.

How do you balance K plus H20---KOH plus H2?

This is a chemical equation representing the reaction of potassium with water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas: 2K + 2H₂O → 2KOH + H₂. To balance it, simply ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. In this case, the equation is already balanced.
