    As potassium is larger than sodium, potassium’s valence electron is at a greater distance from the attractive nucleus and is so removed more easily than sodium’s valence electron. As it is removed more easily, it requires less energy, and can be said to be more reactive.
    Hopefully this helps you! Have a great day!

    because they are found freely in nature uncombined so they are highly reactive with other elements
