So, today we will conduct interesting and very expensive experiments with rubidium.
Rubidium is an active alkali metal, which is in the first group of the periodic table of chemical elements, below potassium.
Due to its extremely high activity rubidium is stored in glass ampoules under vacuum or inert atmosphere such as argon.
In the vial you can observe the shiny surface of rubidium.
Before we conduct our experiments with rubidium, it must be removed from the ampoule, however, the ampoule must of course be first opened to do that.
In order to open it, I took a file and scratched the ampoule to get a more flatten crack later on. Then I hit the ampoule with a hammer, and now it’s open.
However, our rubidium is still trapped inside! To finally get it out of there, I used the small melting point of rubidium which is 39 degrees Celsius.
I heated the vial with the rubidium inside with a torch and poured off the resulted molten metal into the jar of kerosene. Because kerosene has water and oxygen impurities in it, rubidium oxidized very rapidly even in kerosene and becomes coated with a layer of peroxides.
Rubidium is an incredibly soft metal, it’s hardness resembles a butter at room temperature.
Now let's conduct some chemical reactions with it.
To get started, simply cut off a piece of rubidium and leave it on a napkin. Because of the oxidation with oxygen, rubidium melts by the heat of the reaction.
In this case rubidium may become self-igniting, setting flames to everything surrounding it. If you take a large piece of rubidium and leave it on a wooden surface, it will then firstly melt, and later self-ignite burning with a beautiful violet flame because of the rubidium ions. In water, rubidium behaves much more dangerously than potassium. If you throw even a small piece of rubidium in water, an explosion will immediately occur, because rubidium is much denser than water and has a very low melting point, and it is also a very active metal. Large pieces of rubidium vigorously explode in water. I had also conducted a reaction with rubidium and sand, similar to lithium. However, rubidium simply melted on the hot sand, without any combustion. Rubidium still reacted with the sand to form an amorphous silicon from the silicon dioxide that the sand consists of. A beautiful effect was when rubidium was somewhat absorbed in the sand to form a shiny metal surface. Even more interesting was the reaction of rubidium with sulfur. At first I just set fire to the rubidium with sulfur, and the reaction was pretty rough. Then I have melted the sulfur and added pieces of rubidium to it, rubidium burned in the sulfur to form beautiful sparks of molten metal. Finally, to remove the leftover rubidium from the jar, I filled it with alcohol. In this case rubidium immediately ignited the alcohol because of the violent reaction, but then the reaction became more calm. Also, due to the strong alkaline environment the alcohol was colored orange. Nowadays the metal rubidium has little practical application primarily because of the high cost and few places to buy it. The cost of the ampoule with rubidium that I experimented with was around 500 euros. Usually rubidium and its compounds are used in organic synthesis, optics and nuclear industry.Also, vapours of rubidium are used in the high-precision rubidium clocks that are of extremely low error.

    It is worth a shitload relative to most compounds, but diamonds aren't expensive anymore compared to things like other elements we can now harness and use. Also antimatter, dat price tag. The market size of gold and diamonds is why they are still recognized as being valuable materials.

And of course you'd have to be profoundly stupid to wear it since it will give you radiation poisoning and cancer.

    One of the uses of Rubidium was in Rubidium Vapour Magnetometers. A small piece of enriched Rubidium is placed in a quartz bubble with a krypton buffer gas. A small RF coil (~100MHz) excited first the krypton, and as the temp increases along with vapour pressure a beautiful magenta glow appears. Using a polarising filter and ocli filter the light went through an AC heated second ampule at ~320K and using a lens to focus up the light onto a small solar cell the signal was processed and the larmor frequency digitised. It was used to look at the solar wind effects and a variety of fast ripples from 40 seconds to a few minutes. Lots of other kit went with it like Helmholtz coils. Strangely the two elements popped up in radiochemistry, lung at used Rb81as the mother product of Kr81 13 sec half-life ~140kev gamma. The short half life allowed for a quick use of a second standard Tc99 for circulation check. Suspect new ways are used for these studies.
