This photograph is an example of DNA separated in a cesium chloride density gradient. Two tubes containing cesium chloride gradients are arranged vertically next to each other. The gradients have ...

Maybe that’s even more than half of the fun. [CuriousMarc] got an HP 5061A Cesium clock, a somewhat famous instrument as the model that attempted to prove the theory of relativity. The reason?

When the microwave signal exactly matches the material’s resonance frequency — 9.192631770 GHz, in the case of cesium — the number of atoms changing state will be at a maximum, so you know ...

Sodium Chloride is an alkali halide with an fcc crystal structure. The basis is two ions, a sodium cation and a chlorine anion. The crystal lattice parameter is 0.563 nm. The diagram shows both a unit ...

Most people are familiar with sodium chloride (commonly known as salt) as a kitchen ingredient, but it also has important medical uses. Sodium chloride (NaCl), also known as salt, is an essential ...

I've been asked on a number of occasions what my favourite element is. I used to think either oxygen or hydrogen - both so much fun - but that was until my sample of caesium arrived, when it was love ...

A little water helps expose the sodium so it can react with the chlorine gas. The reaction releases a lot of heat as the ionic compound sodium chloride is formed. A sodium and chlorine atom are near ...

AAS technology can provide precise measurements of heavy metals in soil. Read how these techniques are being applied.

Norwegian Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (DSA) says the amount of Cesium discovered in the air filters is “very low.” The filters from Viksjøfjell and Svanhovd are analyzed at the ...

The melting points then get gradually lower, with the element caesium four places down having a melting point of 28°C. A hypothesis is a suggestion or prediction made on the basis of some evidence.

OSLO, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Norway said on Wednesday that elevated levels of radioactive caesium (Cs-137) it had detected near the Arctic border with Russia were likely due to a forest fire near ...
