This is not your average table salt... it's actually sodium metal. Watch to see what happens when you throw sodium on water.
Sodium (Na) is a highly unstable alkali metal. It needs to give up one electron to become stable. When a cubic centimeter sized piece of sodium is placed into water, a vigorous chemical reaction occurs in which sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas is produced.
