45 minus 41 or +4.
An atom of potassium-41 becomes a potassium ion with a plus charge by losing one electron. Potassium-41 has 19 electrons in its neutral state, but when it loses one electron, it becomes a potassium ion (K+) with a plus charge and 18 electrons.
41 protons 41 electrons 52 neutrons
Germanium has 32 protons, 41 neutrons, and 32 electrons.
It loses (Ionises) 1 electron. The '41' is the atomici mass of this particular isotope of potassium. The atomic mass is the sum total of all the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. It has no bearing on potassiums ability to lose an electron .
The element is determined by the atomic number - the number of protons in the nucleus. In this case, element 36 is Krypton. The mass is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Here we have a mass of 77, and a quick check confirms that an isotope of Krypton with a mass of 77 does indeed exist.

Calcium typically has 20 protons, but with an added 2 charge, it now has 18 protons due to the loss of 2 positive charges. Calcium-41 has 41 - 18 = 23 neutrons. With a 2+ charge, it will attract 2 electrons, making it have 18 - 2 = 16 electrons.

t is Selinium, Se the third member of oxygen family
The isotope Germanium -72 has 32 proton, 40 neutrons and 32 electrons. Two other stable isotopes are Ge-70 (38 neutrons) and Ge-74 (42 neutrons) both with the same numbers of protons and electrons as Ge-72 There is also a low percentage stable isotope Ge-73
ONLY the K+ ion (not element) has 19 protons and 18 electrons.The isotopic ion with 21 neutrons must be K+-40 , the most rare potassium-ion (0.01%) out of three possibles, the other isotopes are: K+-39 (93%) and 7% is K+-41Explanation:39, 40 and 41 are the mass numbers of the 3 naturally occurring potassium isotopes.Keep in mind that:1. an element is always neutrally charged, so the number of protons (positives, + ) equals the number of electrons (negatives, - )2. the number of neutrons depends on the 'mass number' of the one particular isotope of that element and that the number of protons + neutrons is the mass number
32 protons, 32 electrons. Ge-72 isotope has 40 neutrons
I know that there are Electrons: 1 Protons: 19 But I am still reaserching the nuetrons I got this info off Answers.com ironicly so if I am wrong than I have no clue!
