You are thinking of cesium-137, which (among other isotopes) is a byproduct of uranium fission. Natural cesium is cesium-133, which is stable and not radioactive. Of course, if you touched it...
@destroyed14MCfly a bowling ball weighs around 3-5 KG and this stuff costs 150 us dollars a gram so thats up to 20,000 dollars to make a bowling ball with cesium. all though it would be cool
that, is awesome. =D i rly hope our tchr would let us try....although we're juz 13...n maybe our school doesn't have it since its kinda dangerous....but whatever.
@riderdude10 I'm afraid it's impossible; francium is very unstable (the most stable isotope has a half-life of less than half an hour), so it is impossible to get enough to even see, let alone react with water spectacularly.
@xmate3 lmfao? theres only 300mg of francium in the earths crust and you think somebody is going to put some in water for a youtube video? so going to happen
hey. think before you type. theres no way sodium would explode like that. it would just sizzle and burn. yes there would be fire. but no explosion. you'd need alot more sodium for that.
It's extremely rare... And it does occur naturally on the earth as a part in the uranium and thorium decay chain... We are talking about a phiko part per (number so high that it practically doesnt exist) per cubic meter, if that much!!
stop with the rediculous argument francium is not obtainable when manufactured it can only be made in a few thousand or million atoms at a time, its based on the probablity of the nuclear reaction to occur and form francium which apparently isnt very probable, plz research
It depends on the container and the ammount... If you put 1mg in a swimming pool it woun't crack, but if you put 5g in a thin walled glass container it might...
that is not francium. its Caesium. for one, look at the title, and two, Fracium is illegal, and very rare. its more expensive than diamonds because francium is found in certain substances and quickly decays. we have to separate francium from those substances by appliying huge amounts of electricity to the francium.
How can a substance only existing for max 45 minutes and you have to work in a nuclear labratory be illegal..? And all that other crap sounds like the refining method used for aluminum...
The earths volume is 1,083,207,317,374 cubic kilometers, so it's obviously not possible to go through all that and get the 28g in less than 15 minutes... You HAVE to make it... And when you make it, there's no need for a refining method...
it IS that rare. MyLittleChemistryLab is right, only about 28g are on earth at once. Since francium is radioactive, it will decay.
The three most common isotopes of francium(221, 222, 223) will all decay in under 45 minutes!(well actually, 221 and 222 will decay a while before that)
so it IS that rare. get YOUR facts straight before you go around telling people off especially people like MyLittleChemistryLab, which probably has more knowledge on this subject than you and me.
Take a lighter flint and wrap a spring round it so you can hold it and heat it up with another lighter. The flint will, after about 15 second glow bright orange. Throw it at the ground and witness the magic=]
Fail. Only about 50 grams of francium exist on the planet at once, and since it's half life for decay isn't very long, so by the time you find a chunk of francium large enough to put in water, it would've decayed.
This guy is legit! I bought photon torpedoes and X -wing space fighters from him!!! He included francium and cesium as a sample! And they were both intergalactic awesome grade!
You wouldn't have happened to ever learn of sarcasm have you? I was pretty damn sure "x-wing fighters" "photon torpedoes" and "intergalactic awesome grade" Made it quite clear I wasn't being serious.
Noone actually knows... The biggest ammount made is 10 000 atoms, and because of the radioactive minerals, there is always about 30g scattered throughout the earths crust.
ive seen a huge 1.5 kg russian ampule on ebay... i think it was 1.5 kg.. insane.. but its not cheap go search for it (: but NEVER try to put over 20 grams in water... even 2 grams is insane.. so.. dont do it with20 grams you cant just run away
once in our class,our teacher was demonstrating reaction of sodium with water.But she added a lil more and kaboooooom.the beaker shattered into pieces!!
Thank you VERY much. I have been trying to get back into science. I remember in school my teacher had a tank of water, & (I THINK) he had a machine that separated the Oxygen & the
Hydrogen. (Sorry. My mouse slid & I was trying top click on an empty space, but accidentally hit "Post Comment" before I was ready.) When he had collected oneof the components in a test tube, he brought a (stick that had a LITTLE glow of fire - I forgot what it was called?) near it,& It brought a little flame to the stick. When hecollected someof the OTHER gas (I forgotwhich was which.) It gave a little {POP}. I thought it was cool.
hydrogen makes the pop and oxygen the flame as oxygen is one of the curicial components of fire (as well as gas and heat i think)and the pop test is where u put a flame of a source of gas and if it pops it is hydrogen
i know what you talking about its when you put magnesium in hydro cleric acid and when you put a match or a ligher near it it will make a loud pop. and the machine you were talking about dont remember the name but it is two wires in water and theyre connected to a low electric source and it start to bubble and you can put test tubes abve the bubbles to collect the hydrogen and oxegen.
you can mix magnesium and hydrocluric acid and put a flame near it and it will pop and the machine that seperated the hydrogen and oxygen did it have two metal peices in it and was it connected to an electrical source
