Answer:
Sodium, potassium, and lithium are very reactive metals and react very vigorously with air as well as water. Therefore, they are kept immersed in kerosene oil in order to prevent their contact with air and moisture. ... This is because aluminium reacts with oxygen present in air to form a thin layer of aluminium oxide.
