Answer

$K_2O(s)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2KOH(aq)$ This is combination.

Work Step by Step

$K_2O(s)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow KOH(aq)$ This is a combination reaction because two compounds are combining to create a third compound. Add a coefficient of 2 to $KOH$ to balance all elements. $K_2O(s)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2KOH(aq)$
