Potassium peroxide is an inorganic compound with the molecular formula K2O2. It is formed as potassium reacts with oxygen in the air, along with potassium oxide (K2O) and potassium superoxide (KO2).

O^- does not exist; O^2- is the monoatomic form of the oxide ion; peroxide is [O-O]^2- (O-O) single bond,

superoxide [O-O]^- (bond order =1.5) both are formed by adding two and one electron to O=O, respectively. Bonding best described using MO theory so not suitable at your level.
