 Potassium Bisulfate is generally immediately available in most volumes. High
purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered. American
Elements produces to many standard grades when applicable, including Mil
Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural
and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade, USP and EP/BP (European
Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia) and follows applicable ASTM testing
standards. Typical and custom packaging is available. Additional
technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available as is a Reference Calculator for
converting relevant units of measurement.

Potassium (atomic symbol: K, atomic number: 19) is a Block S, Group 1,

Period 4 element with an atomic weight of 39.0983. The number of electrons
in each of Potassium's shells is [2, 8, 8, 1] and its electron configuration is
[Ar] 4s1. The potassium atom has a radius of 227.2 pm and a Van der Waals radius of
275 pm. Potassium was discovered and first isolated by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807.
Potassium is the seventh most abundant element on earth. It is one of
the most reactive and electropositive of allmetals and rapidly oxidizes. As with other
alkali metals, potassium decomposes in water with the evolution of hydrogen; because
of its reacts violently with water, it only occurs in nature in ionic salts. In its elemental
form, potassium has a silvery gray metallic appearance, but itscompounds (such as
potassium hydroxide) are more frequently used in industrial and chemical applications. The origin of
the element's name comes from the English word 'potash,' meaning pot ashes, and the Arabic word
'qali,' which means alkali. The symbol K originates from the Latin word 'kalium'. For more
information on potassium, including properties, safety data, research, and American Elements' catalog
of potassium products, visit the Potassium Information Center.

Sulfur or Sulphur (atomic symbol: S, atomic number: 16) is a Block P,

Group 16, Period 3 element with an atomic radius of 32.066. The number of
electrons in each of Sulfur's shells is 2, 8, 6 and its electron configuration is
[Ne]3s2 3p4. In its elemental form, sulfur has a light yellow appearance. The sulfur
atom has a covalent radius of 105 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 180 pm. In
nature, sulfur can be found in hot springs, meteorites, volcanoes, and as galena, gypsum, and epsom
salts. Sulfur has been known since ancient times but was not accepted as an element until 1777 when
Antoine Lavoisier helped to convince the scientific community that it was an element and not a
compound. For more information on sulfur, including properties, safety data, research, and American
Elements' catalog of sulfur products, visit the Sulfur Information Center.
