For thousands of years‚ humans relied on their intuition to understand how the world works. Sure‚ the approach may have led to a few mistakes along the way -- it turns out the Earth isn’t flat‚ for instance -- but ultimately it worked fairly well. Slowly but surely‚ humanity gained an understanding of everything from the laws of motion to thermodynamics‚ and all of it made intuitive sense. And then quantum mechanics came‚ the absolutely baffling branch of physics exploring the very smallest types

Rubidium (Rb) History Rubidium was discovered (1861) spectroscopically by German scientists Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff and named after the two prominent red lines of its spectrum. Rubidium and cesium often occur together in nature. Rubidium‚ however‚ is more widely scattered and seldom forms a natural mineral; it is found only as an impurity in other minerals‚ ranging in content up to 5 percent in such minerals as lepidolite‚ pollucite‚ and carnallite. The primary difficulty associated

reactive metals and do not occur freely in nature. Alkali metals are malleable‚ ductile‚ and are good conductors of heat and electricity. Alkali metals can also explode if they are exposed to water. The Alkali metals are: lithium‚ sodium‚ potassium‚ rubidium‚ cesium‚ and francium. Lithium The mineral petalite‚ which contains lithium‚ was discovered by a Brazilian scientist named Jose Bonifacio towards the end of the 18th century. Then in 1817‚ lithium was discovered by Johan August Arfvedson‚ while

In simple terms‚ by applying or removing pressure‚ it’s possible to alter the conductivity of actually an insulator at lesser pressures. This is why the rubidium atoms are primarily used: to apply sufficient pressure. Usually when we say adding pressure‚ we consider squeezing something- forcing the molecules closer together by application of force. But it’s possible to do the same thing chemically‚by modifying

All kinds of rocks contain very small amounts of radioactive elements‚ these are unstable and they break down into more stable atoms over time‚ which is called radioactive decay. Scientists can tell how old a rock is by using radiometric clocks‚ or by looking at its absolute age. Geologists measure the amount of certain radioactive elements; as time passes the radioactive elements change at regular rates‚ into non-radioactive elements. The older a rock is the larger the number of elements. The age
