검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall that the number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to its atomic number.
Find the atomic number of potassium (K) from the periodic table, which tells you the number of protons and thus electrons in a neutral atom.
Find the atomic number of argon (Ar) from the periodic table, which similarly gives the number of electrons in a neutral argon atom.
Compare the two atomic numbers to determine the difference in the number of electrons between potassium and argon.
Conclude which statement is correct based on the difference in their electron counts.
