Answer:

1. Rubidium metal reacts very rapidly with water to form a colorless basic solution of rubidium hydroxide (RbOH) and hydrogen gas (H2).

2. Rubidium sinks because it is less dense than water. It reacts violently and immediately, with everything leaving the container. Rubidium hydroxide solution and hydrogen are formed.
