Atoms have a theoretical atomic volume, even Potassium. Ok, so what is the atomic radius of Potassium?
Note: Learn more about theĀ molar (or atomic) volume here.
In the case of PotassiumĀ the atomic volume isĀ 45.46 cmĀ³/mol.Ā There are interesting things about Potassium that people don't know about...
