The general reaction is:
2 Me + 2 H2O = 2 MeOH + H2
where Me is an alkali metal.
Very probable francium react violent with water.

Predict reactivity of francium with cold water?
The reactivity of francium with water would be more reactive than most of the other alkali metals, because the lower down the column of alkali metals you go in the periodic table the more reactive the element becomes in cold water. Therefore, if francium was to react with cold water it would react by giving off an explosion.
How does francium react with acids?
The reaction of francium with acids is not known.
What is reaction francium with water?
An explosive reaction.
Which is faster reaction of sodium with oxygen or francium with oxygen?
Very probable the reaction of francium with oxygen is faster.
How can you get a sample of francium?
in some water this is a horrible idea, as francium is an element in the alkali metals, this family of elements reacts violently with water. for instance a small pellet of Potassium creates a bright flash and pops. as the elements move down in periods, they increase in reactivity, this would mean francium, would be the most reactive, a horrible idea would be to keep it in water. the best idea would be to store it in oil, as it will react with air.
Francium was obtained from?
Francium can be obtained by the following nuclear reaction: 197Au + 18O = 210Fr + 5 n
What is the chemical formula for francium mixed with water?
This reaction should be: 2 Fr + 2 H2O = 2 NaOH + H2
How might one expect francium to behave when placed in water?
After a violent reaction the francium hydroxide should be formed.
What do the reactants of a chemical reaction have?
They have a specific reactivity and the reaction need an activation energy.
How is francium currently produced or mined?
Francium is obtained only by a nuclear reaction: 197Au + 18O = 210Fr + 5 n
Would francium combine with water more or less than cesium?
Very probable the reaction of francium should be more violent.
How does francium react with water and why?
Very probable, because francium is an alkali metal, after a violent reaction the hydroxide FrOH should be formed.
