From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"...it behaves very much like rubidium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide but even more vividly than they do."

The wording here seems odd; can anyone think of a better word than vividly. This sentence also does not specify what reactions this behavior is occuring in. Perhaps it should be removed/revised. --71.227.190.111 00:25, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is this better? Also, added reference to how strong cesium metal reacts with water (very violently - stronger than all the alkaline metals) Joeylawn 03:20, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What is the pH for CsOH?

  • Depends on concentration, but concentrated CsOH (aq) will peak at 14.0, the maximum for water. The pKb of CsOH is -1.76, so it has the ability to ionized futher. 151.200.33.73 (talk) 20:57, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then the article is displaying the wrong value for pKb, since it is listed as 1.76. I'd like someone to rectify the situation if the value listed is indeed wrong. 193.126.152.63 (talk) 13:47, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
