What is the product of beta decay potassium-42?
I would assume potassium-42 decays into calcium-42 via beta decay. Potassium-42 --> Calcium-42 + electron
How many valence electrons does each potassium atom have available for bonding?
One valence electron
What is the electron configuration of K 19?
Potassium is the group 1, period 4 element on the periodic table. That means that its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1. This can be shortened to [Ar] 4s1 because argon's electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6.
What particle does argon 39 atomic number 18 emit when it decays to potassium 39 atomic number 19?
An electron - also referred to as a beta particle.
What is the electron dot symbol for a potassium atom?
It is K with one dot so: K . The reasoning behind this is that you put the highest energy level on the dot notation. Electron Configuration notation for Potassium is: 1s2; 2s2, 2p6; 3s2, 3p6, 4s1. It is also in the third row, so that is why it moves up to the fourth energy level.
How many electron potassium gains or loses?
Potassium loses one electron.
Is potassium an electron donor or acceptor?
Potassium is electron donor
How many numbers of valence electrons in potassium?
There is only one valance electron in potassium.
When potassium forms a compound with iodine one electron is transferred from the atom to the atom?
Potassium lose an electron (iodine gain this electron) to form potassium iodide, KI.
How many valence electron does an excited potassium electron have?
one electron
Does potassium have nobel gas electron configuration?
No - but the potassium ion does
What is the electron shell configuration of potassium?
The shell configuration of potassium is 2,8,8,1.
What is potassium's number of valance electrons?
Potassium has 1 valence electron.
Why potassium is a reactive element?
Because potassium loss easily an electron.
What element has one valence electron calcium or potassium?
Potassium has one.
What is the valence of potassium?
1 valence electron
How many lectrons are gained or lost in potassium?
Potassium loses one electron. All Alkali metals lose one electron.
