The Activity of Metals. The primary difference between metals is the ease with which they undergo chemical reactions. The elements toward the bottom left corner of the periodic table are the metals that are the most active in the sense of being the most reactive. Lithium, sodium, and potassium all react with water, for example.
Properties of Water. Water is a polar molecule. Water, H2O, is a molecule with polarity. The central oxygen atom is more electronegative than the two hydrogen atoms, and so the electrons shared in the two bonds spend more time around the oxygen atom than around the hydrogen atoms.
