Modifying the density of the real line

I am having issues trying to do something that is fairly simple. Given the interval [0,1] I need to find a function from [0,1] to [0,1] that concentrates the point density around $x=0.5$. So for ...

For $f(x, y) = x-y$, is $f(K \times K)$ closed if $K$ is closed?

$f: \mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that $f(x, y) = x-y$. For $K \subset \mathbb{R}$ closed is $f(K\times K)$ closed? For the closed interval this is straight forwardly true ...
