hi friend
lithium is an extremely volatile metal and kerosene is too a volatile liquid, if stored can float on kerosene and get exposed to air which can cause explosion
so it is stored in paraffin wax

Answer:
Lithium cannot be stored in kerosene oil , because it is the lightest metal and it floats on its surface and react with air . Therefore it is kept wrapped in paraffin wax. 13. Option C In alkali metals electropositive nature increases from Li to Cs, hence reactivity with water also increases.
