It is Lithium since it has the highest value of hydration energy which in turn is a measure of it's ability to undergo dissociation when placed in water.

small size means greater charge density and hence more of interactions....so Li should react more viogrously !

the answer is c.

potassium's melting point is very low . so when put in water it melts and spreads over the surface . this thin layer due to the heat eveolvesd catches fire .
thus k reacts most violently with water

well the answer is rubidium fr sure.
becasue the reactivity of alkali metals towards water increases down the group as their electropositive charactr increases.
i know i am right.
so plz rate me.
