yes, the silvery white metal I believe you are referring to is Na (sodium) which is indeed silvery white in appearance. It combines with Cl (chlorine) to form a compound, NaCl, which is table salt.
Sodium is a metal that reacts quickly with cold water only when it is finely powdered. When the surface area of the sodium is increased by grinding it into a fine powder, it can react with the water at a faster rate due to the increased contact between the metal and the water molecules.
The 1st group elements i.e. Lithium,Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium and Francium are all low density metals and they react violently with water.
Sodium melts to form a silvery ball which moves about quickly on the water surface, producing hydrogen gas rapidly
An iron nail will rust slowly in distilled water when that water has dissolved oxygen. If you get rid of the oxygen by boiling and keep it from getting back in then the iron nail will not rust at all.
Lithium is the element that produces a red flame when it reacts with water.

The Oxygen in the water reacts with the iron in the nail, making Ferrous Oxide

Gold does not react with air or water, so it does not tarnish or corrode easily. Copper reacts slowly with air and water to form a patina. Silver reacts with sulfur compounds in the air to form tarnish. Iron reacts quickly with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust).
Rubidium hydroxide, RbOH.
The most reactive metal is francium (Fr). However, it is impossible to gather any sufficient quantity of francium to demonstrate this reactivity. The other alkali metals, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium will all react rapidly, even explosively with water.
cement- reacts with water to form "glue" water- reacts with cement, the amount also determines strength aggregate- makes concrete stronger, more durable, and less costly
Calcium oxide is called quick lime because it reacts quickly with water to produce heat. This reaction is known as hydration, where calcium oxide combines with water to form calcium hydroxide, releasing a large amount of heat in the process. The term "quick" in quick lime refers to this rapid reaction with water.
