because they have outer electrons than can merge with other elements. all elements want to have full outer electron shells, and they only have a few outer electrons.
Those are the alkali metals.
The most active elements are in group one and two on the periodic table and are always found in nature combined with other elements. The most active metals are in group one, which is the alkali metals, they wouldn't be in group two. (if you need more information) http://www.chem4kids.com/files/elem_alkalimetal.HTML
Left most column, group 1, the alkali metals; lithium, sodium, potassium , rubidium, cesium and francium
first group element or group 1 elements are most reactive.beacuse they are alkali metals and contained only 1 electrons in their ns orbital.also their ionisation potential is very low,so they easily lose electron and execute reaction.

Alkali metals are the most reactive metals.
Group 1 metals or alkali metals
The alkali group of metals is the most active.
The most active metals are alkali metals.The most active nonmetals are halogens.
Alkali MetalsLithium, potassium and sodium are considered to be some of the most active metals.
Those are the alkali metals.
Yes

The first cloumn in the periodic table has the most reactive elements. The elements decrease in reactivity as you go across the table. in other words alkali metals
Alkali metals are very chemically reactive, are not dense or hard metals and have low melting points.
Alkali metal forms Alkali while metals form bases.
