Iodine (I2) has 2 atoms per molecule and potassium (K) has 1 atom per molecule. Therefore, the total number of atoms in the products can be calculated as follows:
- One molecule of Iodine (I2) contains 2 atoms of Iodine
- Two molecules of Potassium (K) contain 2 atoms of Potassium
So, the reaction products will contain:
- 2 atoms of Iodine (I)
- 4 atoms of Potassium (K)
Thus, there will be a total of 6 atoms in the products.
