Question

Calcium is stored in kerosene.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Metals such as potassium and sodium react so vigorously that they catch fire if kept in the open. Hence, to protect them and to prevent accidental fires, they are kept immersed in kerosene oil. Calcium does not gives a violent reaction to air and hence, not stored in kerosene.
