How many protons neutrons and electrons have K-41?
Potassium-41 has 19 electrons and protons and 22 neutrons.
How many protrons electrons and neutrons are in Potassium?
Potassium has 19 protons, 19 electrons and 20 neutrons.
How many neutrons does geranium have?
Germanium has 40.6 neutrons, rounded to 41.
How many electrons does a neutral atom of potassuim contain?
The number of neutrons in any element depends on the isotope of the element you are referring to. Potassium has 24 isotopes, ranging from 32K to 55K. The most stable natural isotope is 39K, which would have 20 neutrons.
What atoms are in potassium?
Which potassium atom do you want? At what level do you want to count particles?potassium-38: either 19 protons & 19 neutrons or else 114 quarkspotassium-39: either 19 protons & 20 neutrons or else 117 quarkspotassium-40: either 19 protons & 21 neutrons or else 120 quarkspotassium-41: either 19 protons & 22 neutrons or else 123 quarkspotassium-42: either 19 protons & 23 neutrons or else 126 quarkspotassium-43: either 19 protons & 24 neutrons or else 129 quarkspotassium-44: either 19 protons & 25 neutrons or else 132 quarksI hope you did did not mean to count either the mesons or gluon that's convey the strong force in each case.
How many neutrons does potassium-41 contain?
Potassium-41 contains 22 neutrons and 19 protons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons have K-41?
Potassium-41 has 19 electrons and protons and 22 neutrons.
The correct symbol for the isotope of potassium with 22 neutrons is k 41 19?
An isotope of potassium with 22 neutrons has an atomic number of 19 and atomic mass of 41. The symbol is K with a subscript 19 and superscript 41.
The atomic number of potassium is 19 how does potassium -39 differ from potassium -41?
39K has 20 neutrons and 41K has 22 neutrons.
How does potassium -39 different from potassium -41?
Potassium 31 is potassium's normal state, the way you would find it on the Periodic Table. I presume potassium 41 is an isotope of potassium. (An isotope is the same atom, but it has a different number of neutrons, so the mass differs.)
How many neutrons are in calcium -41?
Calcium-41 has 21 neutrons.
How many protrons electrons and neutrons are in Potassium?
Potassium has 19 protons, 19 electrons and 20 neutrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in niobium?
41 protons 41 electrons 52 neutrons
How does potassium-19 differ from potassium-41?
The nomenclature "potassium-19" is not commonly used because it is redundant. The 19 in potassium-19 would indicate the number of protons in potassium. All isotopes of potassium have 19 protons. Therefore 19 is known as the atomic number of potassium. Potassium-41 is one of the three naturally occurring isotopes of potassium. It has 19 protons and 22 neutrons, giving it an atomic mass number of 41.
How many neutrons are in a neutral atom of calcium with a mass number of 41?
41 amu 41 amu
How many neutrons does geranium have?
Germanium has 40.6 neutrons, rounded to 41.
How many electrons does a neutral atom of potassuim contain?
The number of neutrons in any element depends on the isotope of the element you are referring to. Potassium has 24 isotopes, ranging from 32K to 55K. The most stable natural isotope is 39K, which would have 20 neutrons.
