9 paź 2024 · Cesium, chemical element of Group 1 (also called Group Ia) of the periodic table, the alkali metal group, and the first element to be discovered spectroscopically (1860), by German scientists Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff, who named it for the unique blue lines of its spectrum (from the Latin caesius, ‘sky-blue’).
24 maj 2022 · Cesium or caesium is a shiny, pale gold metal with element symbol Cs and atomic number 55. Cesium is the softest metal that is a solid at room temperature. It becomes a liquid element at 28.5 °C or 83.3 °F. Like gallium, it is a metal you can melt in the palm of your hand (but please don’t).
1. From an improbable source: "Cesium has a single valence electron (unpaired) in the S-shell. In other words, it has an electron that's easy to observe (thus easy to use to tell time)." This HowStuffWorks article has a very lucid explanation of how a cesium clock actually functions. – Robert Harvey.
Caesium (IUPAC spelling; [9] also spelled cesium in American English) is a chemical element; it has symbol Cs and atomic number 55. It is a soft, silvery-golden alkali metal with a melting point of 28.5 °C (83.3 °F; 301.6 K), which makes it one of only five elemental metals that are liquid at or near room temperature .
29 cze 2023 · Cesium is a chemical element with the atomic number 55 and is represented by the symbol ‘Cs’ in the periodic table. It is a soft, silvery-golden alkali metal and belongs to the s-block of group 1 of the periodic table.
