Potassium. If you expose its pure form to even the air, it'll blow up in your face. It is very reactive with water, even the miniscule amounts in the air.

This depends entirely on what they are reacting with, and I do not think there is any way of setting up a competition that isn't apples and oranges.

Potassium reacts violently with water; bromine doesn't. However, bromine reacts with ethylene (ethene, as some people call it), while potassium doesn't.
