They metals are stored in oil to minimize the reactivity with air. When alkali metals react with air, they quickly tarnish after begin cut, they burn easily.

What happens when any of the alkali metals react to chlorine?
You would get an chemical form of salt or you can say alkali metal salt.
What happens when metal reacts with metal?
Alkali metals reacts violently with water forming a hydroxide and hydrogen; alkali earth metals react with water but no so violent.Other metals doesn't generally react with water at room temperature.
How do non metals react with water?
Most of them do NOT react with water. Only fluorine and to some extend chlorine do. Actually the only good 'water reacting' group of elements is group 1: the alkali metals.
Do alkali metals react slower or faster than alkaline earth metals?
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
Does water react with alkali metals vigorously?
Yes
What happens when any of the alkali metals react to chlorine?
You would get an chemical form of salt or you can say alkali metal salt.
What will react with water?
At least all the alkali metals, calcium, strontium, barium, fluorine, chlorine, and bromine.
How do alkali metals react with other alkali metals?
They don't
How do alkali metals react to cold water?
alkali metals react violently in cold water
What happens when metal reacts with metal?
Alkali metals reacts violently with water forming a hydroxide and hydrogen; alkali earth metals react with water but no so violent.Other metals doesn't generally react with water at room temperature.
Do Alkali earth metals react with oxygen?
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
How do non metals react with water?
Most of them do NOT react with water. Only fluorine and to some extend chlorine do. Actually the only good 'water reacting' group of elements is group 1: the alkali metals.
Which metal react with dilute hcl?
Many metals including alkali metals, alkali earth metals, chromium, nickel and zinc react with dilute hydrochloric acid.
Why are group 1 metals knowns as alkali metals?
Group 1 elements are known as alkali metals because they react with water to form alkali (or bases).
What metals react violently with acid?
All alkali metals (group 1) and most earth-alkali metals (group 2)
Do alkali metals react slower or faster than alkaline earth metals?
Alkali metals are more reactive than alkaline earth metals.
Do non metals react with water?
Most of them do NOT react with water. Only fluorine and to some extend chlorine do. Actually the only good 'water reacting' group of elements is group 1: the alkali metals.
