All metals, if they do react with water at all, react faster in steam than in water. However, the metals that react SLOWLY with cold water are the metals from Group-IIA(Magnesium, Calcium, etc).

What reaction do you receive when mix potassium magnesium manganese and water?

When potassium, magnesium, and manganese are mixed with water separately, they will undergo different chemical reactions. Potassium will react vigorously with water, magnesium will react slowly to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, while manganese will not react with water under normal conditions.


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.

Argon is not a metal so you cannot expect "metals like argon" to do anything!


Why does zinc react with steam and cold water?

Zinc does react with cold water - it just does so very slowly. Steam is water that is very hot and thus as with any chemical reaction, the heat gives the molecules more energy and so they react faster.
