All alkaline metals are very reactive. this is due to the number of electrons they have in there outer shell. they are situated in the group 1,2 and im not 100% group 6-7. this is because the group determines how many electrons are in the atoms outer shell. so with all atoms trying to get a full outer shell of electrons they will try and loose or gain electrons. so group one and two will quickly try and loose there 1 or 2 outer electrons to get a full outer shell thus making them very reactive and the same with group 6-7 they can not loose there electrons because this would make them positively charged and make it harder for electrons to leave so instead they gain electrons to achieve a full outer shell.
