Calcium can react explosively with alkali-metal carbonates (The Merck Index, 1983, Rahway (NJ), Merck and Co Inc., 10th ed., p. 227).
Magnesium reacts violently with alkali metal carbonates (Pieters, H. A. J. and Creyghton, J. W., 1957, Safety in the Chemical Laboratory, London, Academic Press, 2nd ed., pp. 30).
Titanium can react incandescently or explosively with metal carbonates (J. W. Mellor, 1941. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 7, pp. 19. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).
