Question

Name three metals which do not react with water, under normal conditions.

Answer 1

Hint:‌Some metals show reactivity towards water because When water collides with the metal, metal releases electrons. Electrons generate heat as they leave the molecules of metal. They also break the molecules of water but some metals don’t lose electrons very easily so they don’t react with water, under normal conditions.

Complete answer:
In the given question we have to find out the various metals which have such low or neglected reactivity that they won’t react with the water molecules. They do react with the water but under various enraged circumstances. They may be high temperature, pressure or any other aspect of the surroundings.
So we should keep various facts and stats in mind for the respective question.
Although due to the ionic nature of the water they react heavy with various metals like sodium. But when it comes to the transition metals the reactivity reduces. This is because of the reduction in the ionic nature and the respectively high size of the ion.
Gold and silver cannot react with water and magnesium cannot react with water in normal condition it reacts with water steam.

Note:In physics, a metal is generally regarded as any substance capable of conducting electricity at a temperature of absolute zero. Many elements and compounds that are not normally classified as metals become metallic under high pressures. Equally, some materials regarded as metals can become nonmetals. Sodium, for example, becomes a nonmetal at pressure of just under two million times atmospheric pressure.
