Which metal element reacts explosively with water?

Lithium, sodium, potassium. rubidium, cesium, francium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium all react with varying degree of vigor with water to produce hydrogen gas. Other metals also will but not as vigorously.


This element is the fifth most abundant element in the earth's crustand makes up more than 3 percent of the crust it reacts with water and is in the 2nd group of the periodic table this element is?

This element is calcium. It is the fifth most abundant element in the Earth's crust and makes up more than 3 percent of the crust. It reacts with water and belongs to the 2nd group of the periodic table.


What gas is produced when Sodium metal reacts violently with water to produce sodium hydroxide and a gas that pops in the presence of a burning splint?

The gas produced is hydrogen gas (H2). The reaction between sodium metal and water is a highly exothermic reaction that liberates hydrogen gas, which in turn reacts explosively with oxygen in the air when ignited by a burning splint.


What element reacts with H2O to produce H2?

All metals more reactive than Zn: Al, Mg, Na, Ca, Ba, K, Li


When cesium metal reacts explosively with water does it go through a physical change or a chemical change?

The reaction between cesium metal and water is a chemical change because it involves the breaking and forming of chemical bonds to create new substances (cesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas). The explosive nature of the reaction is due to the rapid release of energy during this chemical transformation.

What is the heaviest known element that is explosive?

Most explosives are not elements, they are compounds, however several elements will react explosively under some conditions. Caesium (132 amu) reacts explosively with water, as would Francium (but Francium is so rare that no one has isolated enough to see or weigh) Several heavy radioactive substances can be made to undergo fission, especially plutonium-239)
