What is the symbol for potassium cation?
The chemical formula (not symbol) of potassium bicarbonate is KHCO3.
What type of ion does potassium form?
Potassium has to lose 1 electron in order to form an ion. Once it does, it is known as a cation (ion with a positive charge,) and its symbol is K+
What is the compound in this formula KCl?
symbol of cation = K+ symbol of anion = CL-
What is the symbol for a cation and anion that are isoelectronic with krypton?
Atoms are isoelectronic when they have the same electron configuration. Therefore, an anion isoelectronic to krypton is bromide. A cation isoelectronic to krypton is rubidium.
What element has a electron configuration of 5s1?
The element with an electron configuration of 5s1 is potassium. The 5s subshell can hold up to 2 electrons, and potassium has one electron in the 5s orbital.

When chlorine forms an ionic compound it gains one electron what symbol is used to represent the chloride ion formed in this way?
Cl- This is the symbol of a chlorine ion that gains one electron
Why does a potassium ion have a positive charge?
Usually Potassium has a single positive charge, but if you put it in a vacume tube and hit it with electron beams of high voltage you can make it do what ever you want it to do.
Identify chemical symbol and charge for hydrogen?
Hydrogen is identified with a 'H' symbol and if dissolved in water it have a negative charge
How do you write the formula of a cation?
A cation is a positively charged particle that is attracted to a negative cathode. Cations are formed when an atom loses an electron to have a full outer shell. Metals usually lose electrons to form a cation. They have a positive charge because the atom now has more protons (positive) than electrons (negative). Example Na+, Mg2+ , Al3+ Heather (N Ireland)
When chlorine forms an ionic compound it gains one electron what symbol is used to represent the chloride ion formed?
The symbol used to represent the chloride ion formed when chlorine gains one electron is Cl-.
What is the Lewis symbol for potassium and chloride ions?
The Lewis symbol for a potassium ion (K+) is K with a positive charge and no dots, indicating the loss of one electron. The Lewis symbol for a chloride ion (Cl-) is Cl with a negative charge and eight dots around it, representing the gain of one electron to achieve a full outer shell.
