Among the alkaline metals I especially like cesium because it's gold.

The second ionization energy of all of the alkaline metals is also somewhat low.

However, the alkaline metal ions are supplied with the hydrogen gas, rather than a bead above the flame.

"Many reactions that are easy to do in the lab with alkaline metals can't be transferred into large-scale production today because of safety issues," he said.

In 1930, Segrè began studying the Zeeman effect in certain alkaline metals.

The resin is also characterised in terms of its chelating ability for the transition metals and the earth alkaline metals.

Coal, aluminum, alkaline metals and tungsten are also present in large amounts in western Henan.

This exothermic reaction, although only occurring at high temperature, is similar to that of alkaline metals (such as sodium or potassium) with water.

This element, which belongs to the group of the alkaline metals, does not form coloured salts (a property only shown by the heavier metals).

He spent eight years of his life searching for alkaline metals in the Mojave Desert that would help him discover and create a new blue glaze.

Therefore Rosing used a photocell, a piece of alkaline metal in a vacuum tube which emitted electrons in response to light.

The torch used as a fuel source a compressed mix of nitrates, sulphur, alkaline metal carbonates, resins and silicones.

The products developed in this division include getters of different types and formats, alkaline metal dispensers, cathodes and materials for thermal management.

Such strategy consist on metalating the COF with alkaline metals such as Li.

By contrast, the atoms in the Alkaline metals column, such as sodium, have one valence electron, with a layer containing 8 electrons in the shell below.

Dr. Walsworth, Dr. Lukin and their team slowed light in a gas form of rubidium, an alkaline metal element.

Industrial companies have been working with alkaline metals for 100 years, according to Owen Mathre, a retired DuPont executive who still consults for the company.

Mr. Lefenfeld had wanted to use the reactivity of alkaline metals to lift oil fragrances from the dissolved tablets off the toilet water and into the air.

These resins can selectively remove toxic cations in the presence of competing cations such as Ca, Mg and alkaline metal cations.

For the first time, in accordance with developed method a whole row of REM borohydrides, their complexes with alkaline metals borohydrides and tetraalkylammonium are derived.

Since the Earth was almost completely covered with ice, carbon dioxide could not be withdrawn from the atmosphere by release of alkaline metal ions weathering out of siliceous rocks.

Most inorganic hydroxide salts are insoluble in water, except for those with cations from Alkaline metal, Barium, Strontium, Calcium (slightly) or Thallium.

For example, the alkaline metals lie in one group (group 1) and share similar properties, such as high reactivity and the tendency to lose one electron to arrive at the noble gas electronic configuration.

Presence of alkaline metal ions has also detrimental effect to the loss tangent of the glass, and to its electrical resistance; glasses for electronics (sealing, vacuum tubes, lamps...) have to take this in account.
