Best answer

Most reactive metals are Na (sodium) and K (potassium)

Physical properties:
(i) Physical nature: Hard and solid due to strong attractive forces between oppositely charged ions-
(ii) High melting point and boiling point because more amount of energy is required to break 
strong force of attraction.
