________________________________

▶▶Two elements which are stored in kerosene are Sodium and Potassium.

✔They are very active element that combines with oxygen at room temperature and burns with a brilliant golden-yellow flame.

✔They reacts violently with water to produce hydrogen gas, which may be ignited by the heat of the reaction.

✔To avoid having sodium react with oxygen or water vapor in the air, it is usually stored under kerosene, naphtha, or some other organic liquid with which it does not react. T

✔They also reacts readily with most nonmetals and dissolves in mercury to form a sodium amalgam.
