  1. Metals are the elements that have the tendency to lose electrons present on them and thereby forming positively charged elements.
  2. The metal Sodium(Na) is having high reactivity with air so it is necessary to keep this metal away from air.
  3. So in order to protect them from reacting to the air, they are stored in kerosene oil.
