About Rubidium Hydroxide

Rubidium Hydroxide is a base.

When Rubidium Hydroxide is dissolved in water it is an alkali.

Rubidium Hydroxide reacts with acids to produce a Rubidium salt:

Hydrochloric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Chloride + Water

Sulphuric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Sulphate + Water

Nitric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Nitrate + Water

Rubidium Hydroxide reacts with acids to produce a Rubidium salt:

Hydrochloric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Chloride + Water

HCl + RbOH → RbCl + H₂O

Sulphuric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Sulphate + Water

H₂SO₄ + 2RbOH → Rb₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

Nitric Acid + Rubidium Hydroxide → Rubidium Nitrate + Water

HNO₃ + RbOH → RbNO₃ + H₂O
