Here's what I get.

Explanation:

(a). Electron affinity of fluorine

#bbcolor(red)(4)# —This is the step in which the ions in the gas phase are converted to the solid crystal.

(b). 1st ionization energy of potassium

#bbcolor(red)(3)# —This is the step in which an electron is removed from #"K(g)"#.

(c). Negative lattice energy of potassium fluoride

#bbcolor(red)(5)# —This is the step in which the ions in the gas phase are converted to the solid crystal.
