Firstly, the chemical equation between the calcium metal and water will be:
Ca(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)
We can see from the equation the bubbles of hydrogen gas which are formed during the reaction stick to the surface of the metal and hence calcium floats on water.
The other metal that will float on the water during the reaction is magnesium which have the same chemical behavior like calcium, we can illustrate that by the chemical equation:
An object's velocity can be described by it's direction. Because velocity is a vector. Besides velocity and acceleration are different units they can't be described by each other.
