How is cesium stored?
Cesium is stored ins sealed glass containers filled with argon.
How do you store caesium?
Cesium has to be stored in totally oxygen and moisture free atmosphere. This is usually done by storing it in capsules filled with argon or other noble gases. These capsules are usually water soluble and hence the cesium stored in them can be used for reaction with other solutions.
Is argon gas explosive?
Any gas stored under pressure can result in an explosion. But other than that, no. Argon is chemically inert.
Can argon be stored with oxygen or acetylene?
Argon is an inert gas- it does not react with any other gasses. While fuel gasses (acetylene) and oxygen must be separated during storage due to the fire hazard, there IS no fire hazard from an inert gas. It may be stored with fuel gasses or with oxygen.
Is argon an inert gas?
argon is an inert gas

2 metals that react with water?
Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium are the main alkali metals, which all react fairly spectacularly with water (Cesium must be kept in argon gas to stop it reacting with air).
Is cesium a gas?
No cesium is a solid metal.
Why are samples of the alkali metal cesium usually stored in argon acid?
Most often to provide a chemically inert atmosphere in which a reaction can take place. Argon is preferred over the lighter noble gases for this purpose because argon is denser than air. And to make pizza!!! :)
What gas are the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution stored in?
They are kept in the inert gas argon with a slight humidity to keep the documents flexible.

Is Cesium a gas at room temperature?
No. Cesium is a solid at room temperature.
Is argon gas?
Yes, argon is a noble gas.
Is argon an inert gas?
argon is an inert gas
Do a noble gas have argon?
Argon is a noble gas
