∙ 14y agoThe francium will be really reactive and will fizz around the container it is in and, if it is reaaly reactive it's possible for the container to explode.

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.
Does water react with alkali metals vigorously?
Yes
Which metals does not react with water?
Most metals do not react with water, especially at room temperature. It is easier to state which metals DO react with water. Those would be Li, K, Sr, Ca and Na. Those reacting with hot water (steam) would be Mg, Al, Zn and Cu. Most other metals do NOT react with water.
What family of elements is very reactive to water?
Alkali metals and earth alkali metals do react strongly with water.(Lithium, ..., Caesium) (Beryllium, ..., Barium)
Why is group 1 metals called alkali metals?
They're metals that form alkaline compounds when they react with water.
How do alkali metals react to cold water?
alkali metals react violently in cold water
What happens when metal reacts with metal?

What happens when francium and cesium are exposed to water?
All alkali metals react violently with water forming a hydroxide and hydrogen.
Does water react with alkali metals vigorously?
Yes

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).
Why is group 1 metals called alkali metals?
They're metals that form alkaline compounds when they react with water.
Is alkaline soluble?
Alkali metals violently react with water.
Does francium explode in water?
All alkali metals react violently with water.
Are transition metals soluble in water?
Overall, transition metals have low reactivity with water. The alkali metals, however, react vigorously with water.
Explain the Reactions of alkali metals in cold water?
It will react vigourisly
