Answer:
Potassium has an atomic radii that is greater than that of lithium that is why potassium is more reactive than lithium
Explanation:
Since they are metals so they loose electrons. The tendency to loose electrons is greater in potassium than that in lithium. This is because in lithium the valence electrons are closer to the nucleus therefore the attractive forces between nucleus and valence electrons are very strong.
