how is potassium usually found is it naturally occuring or manmade?

Question

please help

Answer 1

potassium is a highly reactive metal and is never found uncombined in nature. It was first isolated in its elemental form by Sir Humphry Davy using electrolysis in 1807.

Answer 2

Potassium is naturally found in food, like meats, milk, fruits and vegetables. It is a very important intracellular electrolyte for the body to function well. Those low in potassium levels in the blood, could be given commercially prepared oral tablets. So this is one source of potassium too.

Answer 3

I would think potassium is naturally occurring since it is found in Bananas . which aren't man made but we do grow them. Take a look at your periodic table for other common elements that have been discoverd.
