  • Counting Atoms in K2CO3: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to determine the number of atoms in K2CO3:

    * K2CO3: This is the chemical formula for potassium carbonate.

    * Subscripts: The subscripts in the formula indicate the number of atoms of each element present in one molecule of the compound.

    * Breakdown:

    * K2: There are two potassium (K) atoms.

    * C: There is one carbon (C) atom.

    * O3: There are three oxygen (O) atoms.

    Total Atoms: 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 atoms

    Therefore, there are six atoms present in one molecule of K2CO3.
