Hey Mate..
Sodium and Potassium are the most reactive metals on this earth. They react very explosively with both water and air this is why they are stored in kerosene .
Hope it helped ❤️

Sodium and potassium metals are kept in kerosene or in dry mineraloil. ... In summary, these metals are stored in kerosene becausekerosene contains no water and protects these metals from being exposed to any moisture in the air that would cause these metals to react, potentially violently

sodium & potassium are highly reactive metals.
with reaction with H2O (water or moisture) they burn violently.
as there is moisture in air to prevent their burning they are stored in kerosene as moisture can't enter it.
