It's a lot of fun, but rubidium is a metal and a solid.
Edit:
That's not the whole story. Rubidium is quite easy to vaporize. In fact, it is often used in its gaseous form to show hyperfine splitting of energy levels.
So Rb is not normally a gas in nature but it is regularly used in the gas form.

Is rubidium in water an acid or a base?
Rubidium reacts violently with water to create Rubidium Hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The gas may ignite with the heat of the reaction. The Rubidium Hydroxide remains in solution in the water, and is very strongly alkaline - i.e. it is a base.2Rb(s) + 2H20(l) ---> 2RbOH(aq) + H2(g)
What is the name of RbClO3?
Rubidium hypochlorite is the name for this chemical formula.
What period is the element rb in the periodic table?
Rb is the symbol for the element, rubidium.
What is the formula and name for Rb O?
Rb is rubidium, O is oxygen. They will combine to form Rb2O which is called rubidium oxide.
Is RbI an ionic compound?
Rubidium iodide
Is Rubidium a liquid solid or a gas?
Rubidium is a solid and a metal.
Is Rubidium a noble gas?
No.
What gas is produced when rubidium and water react?
Hydrogen.
What happens to rubidium when its put in acid?
The rubidium reacts violently, producing hydrogen gas and a rubidium salt. If oxygen is present the heat from the reaction may ignite the hydrogen.

What is the noble gas core configuration of rubidium?
[Kr] 4d7 5s1
What is the name of RbClO3?
Rubidium hypochlorite is the name for this chemical formula.

Rb is the symbol for the element, rubidium.
What is the formula and name for Rb O?
Rb is rubidium, O is oxygen. They will combine to form Rb2O which is called rubidium oxide.
What is the Noble gas notation of rubidium?
Rubidium has an atomic number of 37, making it an alkali metal. This means that its last shell is an s with only one electron. The full notation is [Kr] 5s1.
What is rubidium made of?
Rubidium is an element and so it is made of nothing but rubidium.
Is RbI an ionic compound?
Rubidium iodide
