rubidium + water ---> rubidium hydroxide + hydrogen
2Rb (s) + 2H20 (l) ---> 2RbOH (aq) + H2 (g)
Mixing rubidium hydroxide with water produces rubidium hydroxide solution. Rubidium hydroxide is a strong base that ionizes in water to give rubidium cations and hydroxide anions.
Yes, rubidium oxide is soluble in water and it forms a strong alkaline solution due to the formation of rubidium hydroxide.
The word equation for the reaction of rubidium with water is rubidium + water --> rubidium hydroxide + hydrogen. Rubidium is a metal that reacts very quickly and fiercely, even explosively with water.
Yes. All rubidium compounds are water soluble.
Rubidium is highly reactive and if it is added to cold water there will be a large, exothermic reation; rubidium hydroxide and hydrogen are formed.
Rubidium reacts violently with water to create Rubidium Hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The gas may ignite with the heat of the reaction. The Rubidium Hydroxide remains in solution in the water, and is very strongly alkaline - i.e. it is a base.2Rb(s) + 2H20(l) ---> 2RbOH(aq) + H2(g)
Rubidium is a metal, so it is denser than water and will sink when placed in it.
Rubidium reacts violently (and does not explode,) to produce Rubidium Hydroxide and Hydrogen.
Rubidium metal would react with iodine to make rubidium iodide , according to the equation: 2 Ru + I2 -> 2 RuI
Rubidium is not a component of table salt.
As rubidium is a group one element, it has only the 5s1 electron in its outer energy level which makes it very reactive. So, if we were to drop some rubidium in water it would react rapidly to produce smoke and small sparks. There are lots of YouTube videos of this reaction so take a look.
Rubidium hydroxide, RbOH.
