How do acids react with most metals?
Vigorously
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 is a metal element that reacts vigorously with cold water?
I'll assume your talking about a vigorous reaction and not just an oxidation that most metals will undergo in water. All of the group one elements (sodium & potassium etc) and most of the group two elements (calcium etc) will react vigorously and spontaneously in hot water. Try be a little more specific next time.
What happens to the electrons in the outer shell when the alkali metals react with other elements?
the alkali metals have 1 electron in their outer most shell. in order to obtain a full outer shell they have to lose this electron. so when they react with another metal they lose this electron and the outer most shell.
Do metals react in water?
As far as I know, non-metals like Carbon(C) and Sulphur(S) do not react with water. They are tightly binded, so they are insoluble too. Chilax
How do acids react with most metals?
Vigorously
Which group on the periodic table contain metals that react vigorously to water?
Alkali Earth metals are the most reactive metals on the periodic table.
Which group of metals is the most reactive?
The alkali metals are the most reactive (Li, K, Na, Rb, Cs, Fr).
Why are the group 1 elements kept in parraffin?
Since they are alkali metals which react vigorously with most compounds in the environment, especially water. They need to be separated from the environment lest they explode.

What reacts with metal?
Non-metals can react with metals to form ionic or covalent compounds. Mercury will react with most of the metals to form amalgams. Mixture of metals will lead to the formation of alloys.
Do metals react with water?
Some, such as the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and a few others do. But most don't.

How does mercury react with other elements?
Mercury forms amalgams with most metals. It can react with non-metals to form to types of compounds: mercurous and mercuric compounds.
Which elements react with nitrate?
Most metals will react with nitrate ion forming the corresponding metal nitrates.
What metals react violently with acid?
All alkali metals (group 1) and most earth-alkali metals (group 2)
