To find elements that are chemically similar, you don't need to look further than the related elements in the same family (columns). The Periodic Table is formed so elements in the rows have similar chemical properties. Cesium is in the first family, the alkali metals. All metals in this family are similar and will react explosively with water. The reactivity increases as you go down the column, with francium being the most reactive. But since francium is radioactive, I would say rubidium is most similar to cesium.
This question makes no sense. Elements are categorized as metals, metalloids, or non-metals. Cesium is a metal, but there is no scale of "metalness."
Having the alternates would be very helpful, but the most similar elements would be Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, and Francium, since they are all alkaline elements.
These elements are the alkali metals and especially rubidium.
Rubidium and Francium are the two elements most like caesium.
This element is rubidium; francium is extremely rare.
Some examples are: rubidium and francium.
Elements in the same group as cesium

cesium
All the others members of the Alkali metal group have similar properties to Lithium. These are Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium and Francium.
Cesium
Elements in the same group as cesium
Rb
Only caesium has the same properties as caesium. There are other elements which have some similar properties.
It is helpful to organize things by characteristics because you can tell that certain elements are similar. For example if you knew nothing about the chemical or physical properties of (Rb) Rubidium, you could guess it has properties similar to (Cs) Cesium since they are in the same group. The common "Periodic Table" has many interesting forms. Search: "periodic table"
Any element in the alkali metal group would have similar chemical properties, for example they all react easily to water.
Sodium belongs to the family of alkali metals, which includes elements like lithium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. These elements share similar chemical properties, such as being highly reactive with water and forming alkaline solutions.
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.)
If you mean "What is the difference between rubidium and cesium?" then Rubidium and cesium are two different elements.They have similar properties but cesium is denser and has a higher atomic mass.Cesium also reacts more vigorously with water and air.
The elements in the periodic table are arranged so that there is an increase from left to right (such as atomic radius) and from up to down (such as atomic weight). The elements that have somehow similar properties (not always, mind you) are arranged in families (or columns, as you unappropriately name them).Hope this is useful.
Each element has similar properties to the other elements in its group on the periodic table. Sodium is an alkali metal, and those are the elements in Group 1 of the periodic table of elements. We know that lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium all have similar chemical properties.
