Best Answer

Anhydride means to remove a water molecule H2O from the original compound. KOH has only 1 oxygen and 1 hydrogen atom. Therefore, 2 KOH formula units are required to complete the removal--> 2KOH has to subtract 2 H and 1 O from its formula and will finally give K2O

hence, the anhydride of KOH is K2O
