Potassium Cyanide Lewis Structure. There should be brackets around the final lewis structure with a 1. It is a salt which is composed of the potassium k cation and the cyanide cn anion in which the carbon atom is triply bonded to the nitrogen atom and has a negative charge.
Its molecular formula is ckn and its molar mass is 65 12 g mol. It has a smell of bitter almonds and tastes like acrid with a burning sensation. Cyanide is usually found joined with other chemicals to form compounds.
Certain bacteria fungi and algae can produce cyanide and cyanide is found in a number of foods and plants.
