About Potassium

Essential to every living cell, potassium is a soft, silvery alkali metal that reacts vigorously with water. It has atomic number 19 and an atomic mass of 39.098, a notably large atomic radius of 243 pm, and a low melting point of 337 K. Its single valence electron ([Ar] 4s1) is loosely held, giving the low electronegativity of 0.82 and a first ionization energy of just 419 kJ/mol. Humphry Davy first isolated the metal in 1807. Potassium is the seventh most abundant element in Earth's crust, but its reactivity means it never occurs free. It belongs to group 1, period 4.
