Somehow your units seem odd.
Temperature and quantity of potassium seems strange.

Potassium is a metal, somewhat like Sodium. It has a melting point of 63.25°C, and a boiling point of 760°C. Like Sodium, pure Potassium Metal will burn in contact with water.

However, it is often found in an ionic compound for example Potassium Chloride (KCl) which is far less reactive.

KCl salt is soluble in water, and will decrease the melting point and increase the boiling point of the water.
