    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubidium_iodide

    RbOH + HI → RbI + H 2 O. Another method is to neutralize rubidium carbonate with hydriodic acid: [1] Rb 2 CO 3 + 2HI → 2RbI + H 2 O + CO 2. Another method is to use rubidium metal to react directly with iodine, but because rubidium metal is very expensive, it is the least commonly used method. In addition, rubidium reacts violently with ...
