Why is sodium more reactive than lithium?

Sodium is more reactive than Lithium because the metals of Group 1 become more reactive as we go down the group. The ionization energy of lithium is greater than the ionization energy of sodium, and thus sodium is more reactive.


Out of sodium potassium rubidium and cesium Which element has the greatest ionization energy?

Sodium has the greatest ionization energy of the four elements listed from column 1 of a wide form periodic table. Among this group of metals that readily form cations, the largest always has the lowest ionization energy and the smallest has the most. This is generally ascribed to the fact that the valence shell electron is further from the nucleus in the largest element and nearest in the smallest element.
