Why is it that calcium is a soft grey metal that reacts quickly with water. Our bones contain calcium but they are not grey in colour and do not react with water?
Well, darling, calcium is a diva in the periodic table. It may be a soft grey metal that loves to party with water, but when it's in our bones, it's all about keeping them strong and not causing a scene. The calcium in our bones is too busy being a team player in our body to bother with water, it's got bigger fish to fry.
Is pure gold hard reactive or soft?
Gold is an alloy and it is soft, it is an alloy because it reacts with copper and zinc.
What does sodium look like in its pure form?
Sodium is a soft, silver-white metal that is highly reactive with water and air. It is often stored under oil to prevent reaction with moisture or oxygen. In its pure form, sodium is shiny and malleable.
What are the chemical properties of gallium?
Gallium is a soft metal with a low melting point of 29.76°C. It exhibits properties of both metals and non-metals. Gallium is not reactive with water and air at room temperature, but it reacts with acids and alkalis.

What are some general properties of sodium?
It is soft to the extent it can be cut by a knife. It appears grey in colour but is actually silvery except that the surface would react very quickly with oxygen in air. It is an alkali metal and reacts in water to increase the pH of the water. However, it can explode even in cold water.
What is the use for sodium?
Sodium is a soft metal and can be cut with knife. Sodium metal is used in chemistry lab, sometimes in fireworks. Sodium when exposed to water, reacts vigorously.

What are the properties of lithium?
It is a solid. It is half as dense as water. It is the least dense metal. It is highly reactive.It reacts vigorously with water, tarnishes rapidly in air and is flammable.hardest alkali but soft enough to be cut using a knife. :)
A soft metal that reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas?
Sodium is a soft metal that reacts vigorously with water to produce hydrogen gas. This reaction is highly exothermic and can result in the metal catching fire due to the release of heat energy. Special precautions must be taken when handling sodium to avoid accidents.
What family does thulium belong to?
Thulium belongs to the Lanthanide family. Thulium is a silvery metal, so soft it can be cut with a knife. Thulium is stable in air, but reacts slowly with water, and rapidly with acids.
Is pure gold hard reactive or soft?
