Chapter 7: Problem 101
The atomic radius of \(\mathrm{K}\) is \(227 \mathrm{pm}\) and that of \(\mathrm{K}^{+}\) is \(138 \mathrm{pm} .\) Calculate the percent decrease in volume that occurs when \(\mathrm{K}(g)\) is converted to \(\mathrm{K}^{+}(g) .\) (The volume of a sphere is \(\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\), where \(r\) is the radius of the sphere.)
