The characteristics of solids that is most responsible for their structure are:
1. BONDING PATTERNS BETWEEN ATOMS.
2. TYPES OF MATTER IN SOLIDS.
Solid state is one of the four states of matter that exist; the other three are liquid, gas and plasma. Solids generally have their constituent particles arranged in a regular pattern, which is known as crystalline structure. The crystalline structure of the solid is due to the types of matter and the chemical bonds that exist between the particles of solids. The constituent particles of a solid can be atoms, ions or molecules.
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.

Answer:
All matter is made up of substances called elements, which have specific chemical and physical properties and can't be broken down into other substances through ordinary chemical reactions. Gold, in this case, is an element so, therefore, it is considered matter.
Hope it helped :)
Times it bye for then ur answer will be 80
