Yes - metals are on the left side of the table.
The family of caesium on the periodic table is the alkali metal family, which also includes lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and francium. Alkali metals share similar properties such as being highly reactive and having a single electron in their outermost shell.
Caesium is the 5th element in group I of the periodic table. It is an alkali metal, and they become more reactive as you go down the group from lithium to sodium to potassium etc. So we would expect that caesium is highly reactive, even more reactive than rubidium.
it is a metal and therefore a conductor.
Yes, caesium is a good conductor of electricity because it has one valence electron that can move freely through the metal lattice, allowing it to carry an electric current.
calcium, iron, manganese, molybdenum, zinc or caesium.
Yes, caesium chloride is an ionic compound made of the metal caesium and the non-metal chlorine. Caesium itself is a metal and is part of the alkali metal group on the periodic table.
Caesium is a soft metal
Caesium is a solid metal.
Caesium is classified as a soft metal. It has a low melting point and can be easily cut with a knife.
Caesium itself is a metal and does not have a distinct odor. When caesium reacts with air or water, it can produce caesium hydroxide which has a soapy or ammonia-like odor.
Caesium (or cesium) is the softest metal.
Caesium is a metal that forms 1+ cations when undergoing ionic bonding.
Caesium is a chemical element not a solvent.
Caesium is a very volatile and reactive metal that spontaneously combusts in air, and reacts vigorously in water. This makes it difficult for people to utilize caesium for much as a metal, however the compound caesium formate is most widely used for drilling liquids. Some atomic clocks are also known to be caesium-based.
Caesium
The next is caesium.
Alkali metal atoms can often be substituted by other atoms under the right conditions An example is Caesium in Caesium Chloride. By heating Caesium chloride with Calcium metal, caesium is substituted by calcium and the caesium can be distilled off at about 700oC under vacuum. This seems surprising, particularly given the higher reactivity of caesium, but the greater lattice energy of calcium chloride makes this the energetically preferred product over caesium chloride and drives the reaction. (As an aside, this was the most terrifying reaction that I ever did in a lab because of the high temperature caesium that is produced...)
