A Cesium molecule

Cesium is a gas and it is more stable paired with another cesium atom (to balance out electrons and such), and so it is most commonly found as Cs2. It's the same case as oxygen (O2).
In word processing programs, you can usually go to the font-changing window and make the number "subscript" which will put it on the bottom. In HTML, you can use the tag to display it that way.

Yes ... as above mentioned ... is in organic chemistry Carbon-disulphide .... a poisonous and stinking colourless liquid ... very easily flammable ... evaporating at room temperature in summertime .... therefore you can not keep it in a plastic bottle, you must use a glassbottle ...... it can dissolve sulphur .... is not really attractive to have this stuff at home
PS: I assumed, that you did a mistype with the letter "s" and you should have written it as a capital: CS2 ..... otherwise, the answer must really go to a Cesium molecule, which as far as I know doesn't exist. Just check your context, if you are in organic chemistry or not!

CS2 is carbon disulfide.
There is no Cs2 cesium molecule.

I always thought cesium was a solid metal being in the first group and such
