Want this question answered?
Non metals form ionic bonds with metals. Non metals gain the electrons while metals loose. Alkali metals reacts with halogen family in efficient manner.
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.
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
Atoms of non-metals usually gain or share electrons when they react with other atoms.
Group 1 metals react with halogens through electron configuration. Group 1 (Alkali) metals have one electron in their outer shell.
Elements from the boron, carbon, pnictogen, chalcogen and halogen families (groups 13 to 17) react with metals.

False. Many elements easily react, such as those in the Alkali Metals and Alkaline Earth Metals, VI, and halogen groups. Other elements react only under the right conditions, such as the transition metals. Some elements, such as the noble gases, do not react or react only under very stringent conditions.
Yes. the reaction is exothermic and quite violent.

They don't
Fluorine is a halogen, so it reacts with Hydrogen, all of the Alkali Metals and all of the Alkali Earth Metals. There undoubtedly other reactions which I'm not aware of, so please feel free to add to this list if you know of any. There are few substances that Fluorine will not react with. It can react with any substance with which oxygen can react and even a few more such as glass.
