Is strontium chemically similar with calcium or rubidium?
Cesium. For non-transition elements such as rubidium, cesium, and strontium, the most chemically similar element to any other element is always one in the same column of the Periodic Table but in an adjacent row. Since strontium is not in the same column as rubidium but cesium is in the same column and an adjacent row, the answer follows. (This rule is sometimes true also for transition elements, but not always: For example, for elements in columns 8, 9, and 10, the most nearly chemically similar element is one in the same row and an adjacent column within this group, rather than one in the same column but an adjacent row.)
Is calcium more reactive than strontium?
No, strontium is more reactive than calcium.
What is an akalide metal?
An alkali metal is a group 1 element, Li, lithium; Na, sodium; K,potassium; Rb, rubidium; Cs, cesium; Fr, francium. The alkaline earth metals are group 2 elements, Be, beryllium; Mg, magnesium; Ca, calcium; Sr, strontium; Ba, barium, Ra, radium
Why does strontium replace calcium in human bones?
Strontium is chemically very similar to Calcium. The human body will readily use Strontium as bone-making material, but Strontium does not satisfy the other uses the human body has for Calcium e.g. regulating calcium content in blood, etc.
What is least reactive calcium magnesium radium strontium and barium?
calcium
What are soluble hydroxides?
Lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, calcium, strontium, and barium hydroxides are soluble.
What are some reactivity?
lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, francium, beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, radium
What are the members of the alkali family?
Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium, Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.
What are five examples of a base?
Answers: Potassium hydroxide, Barium hydroxide, Caesium hydroxide, Sodium hydroxide, Strontium hydroxide, Calcium hydroxide, Lithium hydroxide, Rubidium hydroxide...

What is the element which reacts with oxygen to produce basic oxide?
which of the following produce basic oxide upon reaction with oxygen? argon, bromine, calcium, iodine, sulphur, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, rubidium, strontium or silicon
What element has one valence electron calcium or potassium?
Potassium has one.
What has similar chemical properties to rubidium?
Rubidium (Rb) can react with many things such as hydrogen because rubidium has one spare electron 2, 8, 18, 8, 1 and hydrogen has only one outer electron so hydrogen in water will reactvigorously with rubidium as hydrogen is desperate to gain one electron and rubidium is desperate to lose one electron and when these bond they form an ion.
What metal produces a crimson flame?
Calcium, rubidium, lithium and strontium have red (or similar) colors in the flame tast.
What is the product of beta decay potassium-42?
I would assume potassium-42 decays into calcium-42 via beta decay. Potassium-42 --> Calcium-42 + electron
Why does potassium form a 1 plus ion while calcium forms a 2 plus ion?
potassium is in group 1 and calcium in group 2, so potassium has 1 valence electron and calcium 2.
Name some bases?
sodium hydroxide, quicklime or Calcium Oxide, Slaked lime or calcium hydroxide, Potassium Hydroxide or caustic potash or lye. Sodium Carbonate; potassium carbonate, rubidium oxide, ammonia etc.
