Equation of the reaction of rubidium with water?

Answer 1

Being an alkali metal Rubidium reacts violently with water, the reaction is similar to sodium and water but rubidium like cesium causes violent and explosive reaction with water, besides rubidium is highly reactive it gets rapidly oxidized.

Answer 2

Rubidium reacts very violently with water, even more violently than potassium. Like potassium, the reaction is exothemic and releases hydrogen gas, which, due to high temperatures, sets alight. After the reaction, all that is left is a solution of rubidium hydroxide.

Answer 3

Being an alkali metal Rubidium reacts violently with water, the reaction is similar to sodium and water but rubidium like cesium causes violent and explosive reaction with water, besides rubidium is highly reactive it gets rapidly oxidized and its slightly radioactive but the half life of rubidium is about 49 billion many times more than the average life time of the universe!

BULL

Answer 4

When rubidium reacts with water, it creates rubidium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

This is because Rb+ ions join with OH- ions from the water. the H+'s left join together. This is shown in the equation:

2Rb + 2H2O => 2RbOH + H2

Because rubidium is in group one on the Periodic Table of elements, it is very reactive. The reaction between it and water is very violent and happens in a split second. The reaction is known to produce a small explosion ( But the more you add, the bigger the bang!!).

Answer 5

Rubidium reacts very violent with water to form rubidium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. It is a very dangerous reaction and there is usually a small explosion.

Answer 6

Yes: Very explosive and exothermic reaction (water seems to burn!)

2Rb + 2H2O --> 2RbOH + H2

Answer 7

This reaction is:
2 Rb + 2 H2O = 2 RbOH + H2

Answer 8

2K(s) + 2H2O → 2KOH(aq) + H2(g)

Answer 9

Rubidium react violently with water.
