Last week we did an experiment about metal and water. First we placed the metal in cold water, then we heated it over a Bunsen Burner. Our aim was to observe the reaction different metals had when they were put in water.
Calcium reacted the most out of all the metals. It bubbled, fizzed, changed colour and temperature.
Lead was one of the metals that didn't have a reaction to either hot or cold water. This would make it ideal for plumbing.
Why do you think the calcium reacted so strongly when it touched the water?
