Calcium is used to isolate Rb from molten RbX because calcium has a smaller atomic radius than rubidium.
A chemical element's atomic radius, which is typically the average or typical distance between the nucleus's core and the outermost isolated electron, serves as a gauge for the size of an atom. There are numerous non-equivalent definitions of atomic radius since the border is not a clearly defined physical entity. Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, metallic radius, and covalent radius are the four most frequently used definitions of atomic radius. Atomic radii are typically measured in a chemically bound condition since it is challenging to isolated individual atoms in order to measure their radii individually.

To test if the hypothesis is correct, a good way is to think of it this way:
Density = mass/volume, right?
Calculate the mass and volume of each and do the equation; this will test your hypothesis.
You will be left with the density of each. But, make sure that the sample sizes are the same (controlled variable) otherwise it will be an unfair test.
Answer:
- 0.99 °C ≅ - 1.0 °C.
Explanation:
- We can solve this problem using the relation:
<em>ΔTf = (Kf)(m),</em>
where, ΔTf is the depression in the freezing point.
Kf is the molal freezing point depression constant of water = -1.86 °C/m,
m is the molality of the solution (m = moles of solute / kg of solvent = (23.5 g / 180.156 g/mol)/(0.245 kg) = 0.53 m.
<em>∴ ΔTf = (Kf)(m)</em> = (-1.86 °C/m)(0.53 m) =<em> - 0.99 °C ≅ - 1.0 °C.</em>
Answer:
10.85 g of water
Explanation:
First we write the balanced chemical equation
Then we calculate the number of moles of nitric acid produced
n(HNO3) = 
According to the balanced equation, water needed in moles is always half the number of moles of HNO3 produced. So since we will produce 1.2044 mol of HNO3, we will need 0.6022 mol of water. Now to calculate what mass that is:
mass(water)=number of moles*molar mass=0.6022mol*18.02g/mol=10.85g
