Question

If radioactive caesium was reacted with chlorine, would you expect the caesium chloride produced to be
radioactive? Explain your answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

When caesium makes contact with water, it reacts very rapidly, and forms a colourless solution of caesium hydroxide (CsOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). This reaction is so fast, that if you tried pouring water into a test tube containing caesium (don't do it), the glass container would shatter all over the place.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Isotopic substitution is the kind of substitution in which the present active species is replaced by its isotope in order to check the reactivity of the given species.

Radioactive substitution is also the same kind of substitution in which the active species is replaced by its radioactive isotope.

Thus, in cesium chloride when radioactive cesium is reacted with the chlorine, then the product formed cesium chloride is expected to be radioactive because radioactivity or isotopic substitution has nothing to do with the bonding. Only outermost electrons of the cesium has been transferred from cesium to chlorine , and its nucleus has not been affected in the same process
