A low electronegativity

Explanation:

Potassium is a metal that is expected to have a very low electronegativity value.

Electronegativity is the relative tendency by which an atom attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Potassium is an element in the first group on the periodic table.

The common trend is that electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down a group.

  • Potassium as metal will prefer to lose electrons rather than attracting because that will make it achieve the octet configuration that will ensure its stability.
  • This is why it will have low electronegativity.
