The group of metals that are mostly solid and react slowly are the transition metals. These metals, which include iron, copper, and nickel, are characterized by their high melting and boiling points, as well as their ability to form various oxidation states. Their slower reactivity is due to their stable electron configurations and strong metallic bonds. Transition metals are often used in construction and manufacturing because of their durability and resistance to corrosion.
Yes, alkali metals like lithium, sodium, and potassium readily react with oxygen to form oxides. This reaction is highly exothermic and can lead to the production of heat and light. The reactivity increases down the group as you move from lithium to potassium.
Acids react -in most cases, but not exclusively- well with basic (alkaline) compounds.
The group I metals (Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, etc.) are very well known for their extreme reactivity. These metals will tarnish quickly in air and can cause small detonations when thrown into water via a highly exothermic reaction that produces flammable hydrogen gas.
2Al (s) + 3H2O(g) ---------> Al2O3 (s) + 3H2(g)
group one and two metals react with oxygen in the air as well as moisture to from metal oxides
Metals that react well with water: Sodium - fizzes Potassium - burns Caesium - explodes Metals that react well with acids: Magnesium

The mazit metals are a hypothetical set of elements with properties predicted through computational chemistry. Their order of reactivity is not well-defined as they do not exist in nature. The term "mazit metals" is often used as an example in chemistry discussions to demonstrate theoretical concepts.
Acids react -in most cases, but not exclusively- well with basic (alkaline) compounds.
I want to say that the answer is that the concept is called chemical reactivity, but that would be referring to their chemical properties as well..
Aluminum and zinc are metals that react with both acids and bases. In acids, they undergo a displacement reaction to form a salt and hydrogen gas. In bases, they react to form a salt and hydrogen gas as well.

Three characteristics of bases is that it has a bitter taste, doesn't react well with metals ,and turns red litmus paper blue.
2Al (s) + 3H2O(g) ---------> Al2O3 (s) + 3H2(g)
it explodes, usually. well.. that's what happens to me anyway.
Group 1 elements, known as alkali metals, are highly reactive, especially with water and halogens, due to their single valence electron. Their reactivity increases down the group, with lithium being the least reactive and cesium the most. Group 2 elements, or alkaline earth metals, are also reactive but less so than alkali metals; their reactivity increases down the group as well. Both groups readily form compounds with nonmetals, but the nature and vigor of their reactions vary significantly.
