Iron rusts with water
the more reactive metals react for the oxygen in a displacement
the less reactive metals there is no reaction
hope this helps x

∙ 14y agoFrancium is the most reactive metal in water, but if you're looking for something you can actually access, try potassium or calcium.

Why is manganese very reactive?
Manganese is not particularly reactive. This is strange considering it is more electropositive than its neighbors in the periodic table.
What Nonmetal that is highly reactive with a metal?
water
Why is a moderately reactive metal used when preparing hydrogen?
A very reactive metal can react too violently with acids to be safe.
Which alkali metal reacts fastest with water?
Caesium. Francium may be more reactive but it is radioactive as well as chemically very reactive and so there are many uncertainties regarding its properties.
What is the outcome of metal plus water?
There are many different kinds of metal. There are highly reactive metals such as sodium, which if placed in water will react immediately, forming a sodium hydroxide solution and releasing hydrogen gas. There are moderately reactive metals such as iron, which if placed in water will slowly start to rust. And there are non-reactive (or inert) metals such as gold, which if placed in water don't do anything. Metal + Water (H2O) produces → Metal Hydroxide (OH-) and Hydrogen gas (H2).
Is chlorine a very reactive non-metal or a very non-reactive non-metal?
"very reactive"
What happens if francium gets on your skin?
Francium is reactive when your skin is moist because it is very reactive with water. Francium is an alkali metal and is very reactive and violent with water.
Is sodium a very reactive metal?
Yes sodium is very reactive metal.Just because of this it is kept in kerosene or some another oil because it is very reactive with oxygen and water.
Is sodium very reactive with water?
Sodium is indeed very reactive with water because it is an Alkali metal. These metals have low melting points. Like the sodium, they are soft enough to be cut with a knife. They are highly reactive.
What is a very chemical reactive metal?
Cesium is the most chemically reactive metal.
Is carbon a very reactive non metal?
Carbon is a very reactive nonmetal but not the most reactive.
Why is manganese very reactive?
Manganese is not particularly reactive. This is strange considering it is more electropositive than its neighbors in the periodic table.
What Nonmetal that is highly reactive with a metal?
water
Which element is used for storing sodium metal?
It is very reactive with water, even moisture in the air, so we store Na metal in paraffin oil.
Why is a moderately reactive metal used when preparing hydrogen?
A very reactive metal can react too violently with acids to be safe.
Which alkali metal reacts fastest with water?
Caesium. Francium may be more reactive but it is radioactive as well as chemically very reactive and so there are many uncertainties regarding its properties.
Is actinium the most reactive?
Actinium is a very reactive (but not the most) metal; the Pauling electronegativity is 1,1.
