1 =Reactivity series of metals

Order of reactivity Metal Reactions with water or steam

most reactive potassium (K) very vigorous reaction with cold water

Second most reactive sodium (Na) vigorous reaction with cold water

Third most reactive calcium (Ca) less vigorous reaction with cold water

least reactive magnesium (Mg) slow reaction with cold water, vigorous with hot water

2=

That is, Magnesium (Mg) reacts with hot water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Titanium is normally coated with the oxide layer thus it is inactive. However when exposed to steam forms 7y titanium dioxide, and hydrogenH2.

3=Iron reacts with steam to form iron (II, III) oxide and hydrogen gas.

4=Not only silver does not react even with steam there are also several metals that also do not react with steam. Metal such as lead, copper, and gold do not react with water at all.
