Is francium a gas liquid or a solid at room temp?

Answer 1

It is considered to be a solid at room temperature 20oC.

Although, francium has a very short half-life (22 miuntes!), so the heat and energy given off by its decay may mean it is technically a liquid at room temperature (its melting point is about 27°C, even lower than caesium). However, this would depend greatly on how much francium you actually have. And, because of the intense radioactivity, it would probably be impossible to gather a significant amount of solid Fr.

Francium is a solid at standard temperature and pressure.

Answer 2

Francium is most likely a solid at room temperature, but this cannot be known for certain as it is impossible to gather enough francium in one place to test its physical and chemical properties.

Answer 3

Francium is a solid at room temperature. It is an extremely rare and highly radioactive metal in the alkali metal group. Due to its high reactivity, francium is never found in pure form in nature and must be synthesized in the laboratory.

Answer 4

because the melting points of alkali metals were plotted and based on the information francium's melting point was extrapollated to less then room temperature.

Answer 5

Because francium is a heavy alkali metal, atomic number 87.

Answer 6

Francium is a solid alkali metal.
