Solution

The correct option is C $K$
As we go down the group in alkali metals the super oxide stability will be increased from top to bottom from Li to Cs.Because as we down the group the size of the ions increases and allows more oxygens to cobine.
So K forms more stable super oxide.
Hence option C is correct.
