In the Periodic Table they are found in Group (I).

They are lithium, sodium , potassium , rubidium, caesium and francium.

They become explosive on going down the group. Also francium is also radio-active.

None of these metals are found 'native' on Earth. They all ionise and are found in other chemicals/substance on Earth. .e.g SALT Sodium chloride.

Is alkali metals highly reactive because of its one valence electrons?

Yes, alkali metals are highly reactive because they have one valence electron that they readily donate to achieve a stable electron configuration. This makes them extremely reactive with water and air, which results in explosive reactions.

The Family of what is the most reactive group of metals in the periodic table?

The most reactive group of metals in the periodic table is Group 1, the alkali metals. These metals are highly reactive due to their low ionization energies, which means they readily lose their outermost electron to form positive ions. This reactivity increases as you move down the group due to the decreasing ionization energies.
