Among many, Sodium. Potassium, even more so.
in theory this element should be francium, the most unstable of all so-far discovered alkali metals (group 1)
Caesium, the most reactive alkali metal. Also francium, but we have only insufficient quantities for experiments.
These are the alkali metals.
Potassium
Calcium hydroxide, traditionally called slaked lime is one.
Yes. Calcium is very reactive and tarnishes in minutes, if not seconds and if left out will corrode away. It will reacts vigorously with water and will quickly be consumed.
Phosphorous (P, #15) is a non-metal. It reacts vigorously with oxygen, which is why it is used for matchheads.
Yes
Lithium reacts vigorously (but not violently) with water.
Potassium
Yes. Calcium reacts vigorously with water producing hydrogen and calcium hydroxide.
Li does NOT react slowly with water. It reacts vigorously to produce LiOH + H2 gas.
Group one elements react vigorously with water.They even react when exposed to air.For example lithium reacts violently with water.
Exothermic
Al2Br6 reacts vigorously with water with evolution of HBr and formation of Al-OH-Br species.
Calcium hydroxide, traditionally called slaked lime is one.
Zn
sodium
Potassium reacts vigorously with water, as it is one of the most reactive alkali metals. When it does, it floats on top of the water, and burns a lilac flame. It also may explode. Fizzing and bubbling will also be seen as hydrogen gas is produced. The potassium reacts with the water to become a hydroxide (potassium hydroxide)
When Potassium is put in water, it reacts vigorously. It sends out a purple flame and it makes a small explosion. You can also smell the smell of burnt fumes.
