Rubidium compounds have very few applications. [1] Like caesium nitrate, it is used in infrared radiation optics, in pyrotechnic compositions as a pyrotechnic colorant and as an oxidizer, e.g. in decoys and illumination flares although it is rarely used in fireworks to produce a red-violet colour.
Alkali metal nitrates are chemical compounds consisting of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium) and the nitrate ion. Only two are of major commercial value, the sodium and potassium salts. [1] They are white, water-soluble salts with melting points ranging from 255 °C (LiNO 3) to 414 °C (CsNO
This is a list of common chemical compounds with chemical formulae and CAS numbers, indexed by formula. This complements alternative listing at list of inorganic compounds. There is no complete list of chemical compounds since by nature the list would be infinite.
Rubidium azide – RbN 3; Rubidium bromide – RbBr; Rubidium chloride – RbCl; Rubidium fluoride – RbF; Rubidium hydrogen sulfate – RbHSO 4; Rubidium hydroxide – RbOH; Rubidium iodide – RbI; Rubidium nitrate – RbNO 3; Rubidium oxide – Rb 2 O; Rubidium telluride – Rb 2 Te; Rubidium titanyl phosphate — RbTiOPO 4
Sodium nitrite is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na N O 2. It is a white to slightly yellowish crystalline powder that is very soluble in water and is hygroscopic . From an industrial perspective, it is the most important nitrite salt.
Sodium nitride and potassium nitride has been generated, but remains a laboratory curiosity. The nitrides of the alkaline earth metals that have the formula M 3 N 2 are however numerous. Examples include beryllium nitride (Be 3 N 2), magnesium nitride (Mg 3 N 2), calcium nitride (Ca 3 N 2), and strontium nitride (Sr 3 N 2). The nitrides of ...
Rubidium is a chemical element; it has symbol Rb and atomic number 37. It is a very soft, whitish-grey solid in the alkali metal group, similar to potassium and caesium. [9] Rubidium is the first alkali metal in the group to have a density higher than water.
In at least one study, rubidium azide was produced by the reaction between butyl nitrite, hydrazine monohydrate, and rubidium hydroxide in the presence of ethanol: C 4 H 9 ONO + N 2 H 4 ·H 2 O + RbOH → RbN 3 + C 4 H 9 OH + 3 H 2 O. This formula is typically used to synthesize potassium azide from caustic potash. [5]
