Because if they kept open they can burn and if they kept in water they can react with water. So, they are kept in kerosene. Sodium is the most reactive metals on this earth. They react very explosively with both water and air that is why they are stored in kerosene instead.

it's really nice to see ya❤❤

here's ua answer :

Sodium (Na) is a very reactive metal. It is kept 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 and form sodium hydroxide. This is a strongly exothermic reaction, and lot of heat is generated...
