how many meq's is 595 mg of potassium gluconate in pill form?
_____________
You seem to be asking how translate a dose of potassium chloride, which is often expressed as mEq's when prescribed as a drug, into an equivalent dose of potassium in supplemental potassium gluconate, which is generally expressed in mg.
595 mg of potassium gluconate contains about 99mg of elemental potassium.
189 mg of potassium chloride also contains about 99mg of elemental potassium.
189 mg of potassium chloride is about 2.54 mEq
That said, the potassium in potassium gluconate is more easily absorbed by the body than is the potassium in potassium chloride, so seeking the equivalent elemental potassium dosage may not be what you want as it may produce different effects in the body.
For example, my mother had been prescribed 20mEq of potassium chloride by her doctor, which contains 781.960 mg of elemental potassium. The large pills were hard for her to swallow. Instead i gave her about 1/4 teaspoon of powered potassium gluconate mixed in a glass of water, which contained only about 135 mg elemental potassium, about the same contained in 3.5 mEq of potassium chloride. That was less than a fifth the amount prescribed by her doctor, yet her potassium levels in her blood tests were just fine.
NONE!!! You have pitched the question the wrong way around. It should be 'How many compounds contain the element potassium?' The answer is hundreds if not thousands. Here are a few compounds containing potassium Potassium oxide (K2O) Potassium hydroxide (KOH) Potassium Carbonate (K2CO3) Potassium chloride (KCl) Potassium permanganate ( KMnO7) Potassium ethanoate (CH3COOK) et.seq.,
Potassium iodide is two atoms, one of potassium and one of iodine.
In one mole of potassium dichromate, there seven moles of oxygen. This means in two moles of K2Cr2O7, there are 14 moles of O, or 7 Moles of O2, which equals 224 grams.
Four (4) mol of potassium are represented.

390 mg is 10 meq if dealing with 'elemental' Potassium 2350 mg is 10 meq if dealing with Potassium Gluconate
Tablet Klor Con contains potassium chloride in it. 20 milliequivalent of potassium chloride equals to 1.5 grams of potassium chloride.
Roughly 4 1/2 potassium gluconate tablets equals 1 banana.
