reactive metals are typically contained in the alkali metal catagory. these can be dangerous because the give away their vallence electron to the H2O molocule causing and increase in heat and also the seperation of the atoms. in simple terms, these alkali metals explode on contact with water. lithium is the least reactive, then sodium, then potassium, then rubidium, then cesium. throwing larga amounts of these in water too close to you can result in death by explosion
What else can I help you with?
What are the ranks of the periodic table families from most to least reactive?
Most reactive metals are alkali metals, most reactive nonmetalas are halogens.Least reactive metals are platinum metals; least reactive nonmetals are noble gases.
Are alkali metals considered to be very reactive or very unreactive?
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
What is the group of very reactive metals called?
Assuming "very reactive" to mean spontaneous and energetic in reaction, lower Alkaline metals are among the most reactive.
What are more reactive alkali metals or alkline earth metals?
alkali metals
What family of elements in the period table contains the most reactive metals?
The most reactive metals are the alkali metals in group 1a.
What metals are so reactive with acid?
Metals such as sodium, potassium, and calcium are highly reactive with acids and can undergo vigorous reactions, releasing hydrogen gas. These reactions can be dangerous and should be conducted with caution.
What are the ranks of the periodic table families from most to least reactive?
Most reactive metals are alkali metals, most reactive nonmetalas are halogens.Least reactive metals are platinum metals; least reactive nonmetals are noble gases.
Why shouldn't dilute acid be added to the most reactive metals?
Dilute acid should not be added to reactive metals because the result is dangerous. This violent reaction can easily cause damage to property or cause harm to people.
Which group of metals is more reactive the alkali metals or the alkaline earth metals?
The alkali metals are more reactive.
What family in the Periodic table contain the most reactive metals?
Alkali metals are most reactive metals. Halogen family comprises of highly reactive non-metals.
Is gold dangerous or toxic?
No. Gold is one of the least reactive metals and is so safe that for decades it was used as a dental filling.
Are alkaline-earth metals reactive?
Alkaline-earth metals are less reactive compared to alkali metals, but they still react with water and oxygen to form oxides and hydroxides. They are more reactive than transition metals but less reactive than alkali metals.
What is the different between reactive and non reactive metals?
one reacts and one doesn't
What do very reactive metals lose?
Reactive metals lose electrons when being oxidised.
Where are the most reactive non metals?
The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
What is the most reactive group of metals in the periodic table is the?
The Alkali metals are the most reactive group of metals in the Periodic Table. Of these Francium is the most reactive metal of all.
How many reactive metals are there?
There are five reactive metals: lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium. These metals are located in Group 1 of the periodic table and are highly reactive due to their tendency to lose an electron easily.
