| - Potassium is a mineral that is involved in both electrical and cellular functions in the body.
- Potassium son of Rodderick. Real name is unknown to me and you. Abit like 'BJ Honnycut' from the television series M*A*S*H (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital).
- Potassium was a chemical element. Several compounds of potassium existed, including radioactive salts. An overdose of the substance was fatal. Potassium decayed, and this decay, when occurring within a planet, heated the rock of the planet's crust.
- Potassium is an element. The Scarab miniature naquadah bomb used potassium and Naquadah to create it's explosive reaction. (SG1: "Singularity")
- Potassium has existed at least back as far back as 1994. Its common use is being a way for scientists to refer to the compound created when molten potassium reacts with gold: potassium aurate.
- Potassium is a fictional powder element for Powder Game.
- Potassium is a chemical element, number 19 on the periodic table. When the crew of the USS Exeter was reduced to crystalline minerals with all water drained from their bodies, 35% of their remains were potassium. (TOS: "The Omega Glory" ) Potassium is a component of the chemical compound yominum sulfide (K4Ym3(SO73Es2). (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) During a scan of Aldean DNA, Doctor Beverly Crusher was able to confirm that potassium overexposure was not responsible for the Aldeans sterility. (TNG: "When The Bough Breaks" )

- Potassium is the 19th element in the periodic table according to its atomic number. It belongs to the Alkali metal's category and is highly reactive. Elemental potassium is soft, silver-white and oxidizes rapidly in air and is very reactive with water, which generates sufficient heat to ignite the hydrogen produced in the reaction(causing further heavy reaction). It burns with a Lilac coloured flame. Due to its high reactivity , potassium is usually kept stored in parrafin /kerosene oil.
- Potassium is a chemical element with the symbol K (derived from Neo-Latin kalium) and atomic number 19. Elemental potassium is a soft silvery-white alkali metal that oxidizes rapidly in air and is very reactive with water, generating sufficient heat to ignite hydrogen emitted in the reaction and burning with a lilac flame. Naturally occurring potassium is composed of three isotopes, one of which, 40K, is radioactive. Traces (0.012%) of this isotope are found in all potassium, making 40K the most common radioisotope in the human body and in many biological materials, as well as in common building substances such as concrete.
- Potassium (pronounced /pəˈtæsiəm/) is a chemical element. It has the symbol K (Arabic: al qalja → Latin: kalium) and atomic number 19. The name "potassium" comes from the word "potash", as potassium was first isolated from potash. Potassium is a soft silvery-white metallic alkali metal that occurs naturally bound to other elements in seawater and many minerals. It oxidizes rapidly in air and is very reactive, especially towards water. In many respects, potassium and sodium are chemically similar, although organisms in general, and animal cells in particular, treat them very differently.
- Potassium (pronounced /pɵˈtæsiəm/ ) is the chemical element with the symbol K (Latin: kalium, from al-qalyah "plant ashes" cf. Alkali from the same root, more commonly known in Modern Standard Arabic as بوتاسيوم ‹bwtasywm›), atomic number 19, and atomic mass 39.0983. Potassium was first isolated from potash. Elemental potassium is a soft silvery-white metallic alkali metal that oxidizes rapidly in air and is very reactive with water, generating sufficient heat to ignite the evolved hydrogen.
- Potassium is the second least dense metal; only lithium is less dense. It is a soft, low-melting solid that can easily be cut with a knife. Freshly cut potassium is silvery in appearance, but in air it begins to tarnish toward grey immediately. In a flame test, potassium and its compounds emit a lilac color, which may be masked by the strong yellow emission of sodium if it is also present. Cobalt glass can be used to filter out the yellow sodium color.
