A knot is one nautical mile, which is 1.852km. One knot per hour is therefore 1.852km/h

Answer

A 'knot' is used to measure speed or velocity, and is equivalent to one nautical mile per hour. There is no such thing as a 'knot per hour'! A knot is equivalent to 1.852 km/h.

This question cannot be answered sensibly. A kilometre is a measure of distance, with dimensions [L]. A knot is a measure of speed, with dimensions [LT-1]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.
