Alkali metals are very good reducing agentsbecause of their great tendency to lose electrons. The reducing character increases from Na to Cs that's why k is the answer
hope it helps then plz mark as brainliest

tanu912:
please explain because the answer is K and I dont know the reason
ok
hey check my answer now

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The ability of a substance to gain electrons is known as reduction potential.
Most of the elements have a certain value of reduction potential. For the given elements, value of reduction potential will be as follows.
Na = -2.71 V, Mg = -2.38 V, Al = -1.66 V, and K = -2.92 V.
Larger is the value of electrode potential stronger will be reducing power of an element.
Hence, we can conclude that out of the given options K is the strongest reducing agent.
