Pure sodium reacts very violently when dropped into water; it produces an exothermic reaction that causes the sodium to bounce and skip across the surface of the water -- or if suddenly immersed, to explode.

Pure magnesium, when it is burning, also causes a violent reaction in water.

Naturally, performing either of these should not be attempted at home, especially not by anyone who isn't a chemist by trade!

all of the chemicals react to water except , well, I don't know. Some people may think water is just for 1 thing and 1 thing only but really, water is extremely powerful and can cause good damage or bad damage. Water is very, very, very good for us and our environment. I recommend you should be careful with water. You never know what it is going to do.
