REALLY?? Both Cesium Chloride and Nitride are soluable >50 g/100 ml of water.
When Cs is exposed to air, it forms Cs Oxide, very quickly. That reacts with water to make Cs Hydroxide. The Hydroxide would react w/ Hydrochloric or Nitric acid to form the very soluable salts listed above. -John ========== [snip] > The problem is not inactivating the cesium, that happens when pretty much > any gas enteres the tube.
