Overall, transition metals have low reactivity with water. The alkali metals, however, react vigorously with water.
Metals react with air in a form called oxidizing. This is caused because the oxygen molecules are reacting with the surface of the metal.

yes they are. :)

All metals, if they do react with water at all, react faster in steam than in water. However, the metals that react SLOWLY with cold water are the metals from Group-IIA(Magnesium, Calcium, etc).

Many. All the alkali metals will react explosively with it. All the alkaline earths will also react extremely vigorously. Group 3 metals from Al and below will and many transition metals do also. Copper, silver and Gold do not.
transition metals react with certain chemicals A short and correct answer here is impossible; see the link below and after read about each element in an introductory treatise of inorganic chemistry or a book for chemistry of metals.
transition metals
If you're referring to the periodic table, the group one and two elements (Alkali and Alkaline earth metals) react with water very vigorously, often explosively in the Alkali metals. The transition metals react VERY slowly, as water can be considered an oxidising agent, to form the respective oxides. This can be seen in Iron(III) oxide, as the red rust is formed when iron metal is left in contact with moisture.

elements in groups 3-12 are transition metals
yes they are. :)
