All elements of the alkali metals (lithium [Li], sodium [Na], potassium [K}, rubidium [Rb], cesium [Cs] and francium [Fr]) group will react violently when placed in water. The further from the top, the more violent the reaction will be. This happens due to their very high reactivities and thus, they are kept in kerosene oil.

Why does a small mass have an enormous destructive power in a nuclear explosion?

In a nuclear explosion, a small mass can have enormous destructive power because of the process of nuclear fission, where the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of radiation and heat. This process creates a chain reaction that releases more energy exponentially, leading to a massive explosion even from a small amount of fissile material.


In the test tube which gas 'pops' when a burning splint is inserted?

Oxygen gas will "pop" when a burning splint is inserted into a test tube, due to the rapid combustion reaction that occurs between the oxygen and the flammable material on the splint. This reaction creates a small explosion sound known as a "pop".


What is a period 5 element that reacts explosively with water?

Potassium, which is a period 5 element, reacts explosively with water. When potassium comes into contact with water, it produces hydrogen gas, which ignites immediately due to the heat produced by the reaction, resulting in a small explosion.

What is a explosion?

A thermonuclear explosion occurs when an element, usually hydrogen or helium, is heated to the point that the nuclei of atoms become unstable. The result is fusion, when atoms combine to form the atoms of heavier elements, giving off enormous amounts of energy, which sustains the heat that resulted in fusion. In a "hydrogen" bomb, the initial energy to achieve the required temperature is provided by a small atomic (fission) bomb. The thermonuclear energy is dissipated in an enormous explosion. This process occurs naturally in the sun and stars.
