Hey MATE!
Sodium is very reactive in nature. When exposed in air, it automatically forms Na2O.
When it is put in water it reacts vigorously and starts burning on water.
Due to the above reasons Sodium is called an active metal.
Hope it helps :))

The primary difference between metals is the ease with which they undergo chemical reactions. The elements toward the bottom left corner of the periodic table are the metals that are the most active in the sense of being the most reactive. Lithium, sodium, and potassium all react with water, for example. The rate of this reaction increases as we go down this column, however, because these elements become more active as they become more metallic. then sodium is reactive metal. plzz mark me brainliest ans
