Is a alkali metal that can be cut with a knife?
Most of the Alkali metals are soft enough to be cut with a knife, certainly Sodium, Potassium and Rubidium are.
What is a metal that is soft enough to cut with a knife?
Lithium and possibly sodium
Is rubidium mallebility?
Rubidium is a metal, but it isn't considered to be malleable for two main reasons: first, it is not very hard; in fact you can cut it easily with a knife; second, it is so highly reactive that it would not be practical to try to shape it. Being an alkali metal in period 5, it is explosively reactive even with air.
What is sacrificial coating?
When a more reactive metal sacrifices itself for a less reactive metal to prevent the lesser reactive metal from rusting. :-)
What is the most reactive metal and nonmetal group in the periodic table?
caesium is the most reactive non-radioactive metal and Florine is the most reactive non-metal, but francium is the most reactive, radioactive metal
Is sodium very reactive with water?
Sodium is indeed very reactive with water because it is an Alkali metal. These metals have low melting points. Like the sodium, they are soft enough to be cut with a knife. They are highly reactive.
Can a metal or nonmetal element be easily cut with a knife?
elements that is soft and easy to cut cleanly with a knife likely to be metal or a nonmetal
Can alkali metals metals cut with a knife?
Na (Sodium) is an alkali metal that can be cut with a knife.
Would you use a metal or plastic knife to cut cucumber?
Metal.
Why does lettuce turn brown when you cut it with a metal knife?
The lettuce does not turn brown due to it being cut with a metal knife. It turns brown due to oxidation.

Is a metal that is soft enough to be cut with a knife?
Mercury.
Is a metal that is soft enough to cut with a knife?
Mercury.
Is an element that are soft and easy to cut cleanly with a knife likely to be a metal or a nonmetal?
metal
What is a metal that is soft enough to cut with a knife?
Lithium and possibly sodium
Can you cut lithium with a knife?
Yes, it causes a small explosion when placed in water and it can also be cut with a knife
Are sodium and chlorine similar?
No. At standard temperature, sodium is a highly reactive, silvery-gray metal that is soft enough to be cut with a knife. At standard temperature, chlorine is a dangerous and poisonous yellowish-green gas which exists as Cl2.
