A bond is a force of attraction between atoms. They are mainly fthree types of bonds namely; ionic bond, which involves transfer of electrons between a metal and a non metal, covalent bond which occurs between non metal atoms by sharing of electrons, metallic bond which is a bond in the metal structure between metal atoms and the sea of electrons. in this case carbon and hydrogen are non metals hence they will have a covalent bond between their atoms.
Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.
Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
Good ventilation as a product of it is pure Cl2 gas
