Potassium is a metal. So when it is ionized, it is to act as a cation, or a positively charged ion, K⁺.  This means that potassium donates an electron when ionized. Thus, it would have lesser electrons and consequently, smaller radius. <em>So, the answer is A.</em>

58-Ni has an atomic number of 28 which are the protons and a mass number of 58. Since the mass number is 58 this is the protons
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Explanation: Nickel is element number 28 on the period table with a mass number 58 or 60, it exist in two forms and the phenomenon is known as isotopy

Definition of Isotopy is simply a phenomenon whereby elements exist in various forms that have the exact same chemical properties but different atomic mass.

58-Ni has atomic number 28 because that's the number o the element on the periodic table. Proton number is the same as atomic number and same as electron number for a neutral element or element without charge.

Mass number = Proton number (P) + Neutron number (N)

58 = 28 + N

N= 58-28

N= 30

58-Ni has 28 has the atomic number, proton number and electron number because it is a neutral atom but the neutron is 30 as shown in the calculation above.

60-NI+2 has a contrasting figure because the element has a charge of +2

Mass number= Proton + Neutron

60 = 28 + N

N= 60 - 28

N= 32

Electron = Proton - Charge

                 28 - (+2)

                  28 - 2

Electron = 26

The number of electron in 60-Ni +2 differs from 58-Ni because of the number of charge

Electron number differs from proton number in any element with a charge.
