Potassium chloride is a greyish white liquid.

A:Actually, Potassium Chloride (KCl) in it's pure form is a translucent/white solid, much like table salt (NaCl). You can buy it in the form of NoSalt.

It forms a cubic crystal.

In its natural mineral form, sylvite, it will have varying red and yellow colors based on impurities.

It will dissolve in water which may be the previous comment.

What is potassiums oxidation number?

Potassium typically has an oxidation number of +1. This is because it readily gives away its one valence electron to form a stable ion.


How does calcium atomic radius compare to magnesiums radius and potassiums radius?

Calcium has a larger atomic radius than magnesium and a smaller atomic radius than potassium. This trend is due to the increase in number of protons and electrons as you move across the period on the periodic table from magnesium to calcium to potassium.

How does potassiums atomic radius compare to that of sodium?

Potassium has a larger atomic radius compared to sodium. This is because as you move down a group in the periodic table, the atomic radius increases due to the addition of more energy levels. In the case of potassium and sodium, potassium is located below sodium in the same group, resulting in a larger atomic radius for potassium.


How many atoms are in potassium phosphate?

In general "potassium phosphate will have 8 atoms, but WHICH 8 depends on which potassium phosphate you are talking about ("potassium phosphate" refers to all the phosphate salts of potassium).Monopotassium phosphate (KH2PO4 ) has 1 potassium, 2 hydrogens, 1 phosphorous and 4 oxygens for a total of 8 atomsDipotassium phosphate (K2HPO4) has 2 potassiums, 1 hydrogen, 1 phosphorous and 4 oxygens, for a total of 8Tripotassium phosphate (K3PO4) has 3 potassiums, 1 phosphorous and 4 oxygens, for a total of 8 atoms
