Abstract
With the use of a new computer program and following the PBC periodic bond chain concept, the morphology of triclinic potassium trihydrogen dioxalate dihydrate, KH3(C2O4)2 . 2 H2O (also termed potassium tetroxa late, KTO) has been deduced from its crystal structure. Several values of the parameters of the potential energies for ionic and hydrogen bo nds were examined. The morphology turned out to be rather independent of the choice of the potentials. The agreement with observed morpholog ies reported in the literature is good.
