Sodium is a highly reactive metal . It is stored in kerosene to prevent it from coming in contact with oxygen and moisture if this happens it will react with the moisture present in air to form sodium hydroxide .The reaction that takes place is strongly exothermic and hence a lot of heat is produced.
