How do you draw diagram of potassium atom with electrons in their shells?

K* *******I (draw the 7 electrons around the I, i cant because im typing, obviously) [K]+-->[********I]- you write + for K because it has lost an electron (and therefore has a charge of 1+) and - for I because it has gained an electron ( and has developed a charge of 1-) this is an ionic bond hope it helps:)

How many electrons does a potassium atom give up when it becomes an ion?
Potassium is a Group I element (group 1) and therefore LOSES 1 electron to achieve full outer shells and become an ion.
How many electrons surround the nucleus of an atom of potassium?
There are 19 electrons in the potassium nucleus.
What atom has the largest atomic radius calcium iodine potassium or cesium?
Potassium. It has two extra shells than lithium.
How many valence electrons does an atom of potassium have?
4
How many electrons does a potassium atom need to donate to another atom to satisfy the octet rule?
It depends which 'other atom' it is
A potassium atom has how many electrons?
The neutral atom of potassium has 19 electrons.
How many electrons does an atom potassium havew?
Finding the number of electrons in an atom is easy. You just have to know the atomic number of the element. The atomic number for Potassium is 19. That means Potassium has 19 electrons.
What is the total number of electrons in potassium?
A neutral potassium atom has 19 electrons.
Which of a potassium atom's electrons are its valence electrons?
Valence electrons are those in the outermost shell of the atom.
What are found in shells around the central part of an atom?
its electrons that are found in the shells around an atom.
How many electrons in potassium?
Potassium is a metal element. There are 19 electrons in a single atom.
Electrons are arranged into what order?
Electrons are arranged in shells around the atom.
Where is the location of electrons?
The electron can either be by itself outside of an atom, or can be in an atom in a series of energy 'shells' outside of the nucleus.
How many electrons does a potassium atom give up when it becomes an ion?
Potassium is a Group I element (group 1) and therefore LOSES 1 electron to achieve full outer shells and become an ion.
How many electrons and protons in potassium?
Potassium is a non metal element. There are 19 electrons in a single atom.
Electrons orbit the atom's nucleus in one of these?
Shells.
Why are electrons located on the shells of an atom?
Quantum mechanics.
