उत्तर
- Metal A with electronic configuration of (2, 8, 1) is sodium (Na).
- Metal B with electronic configuration of (2, 8, 8, 2) is calcium (Ca).
- Metal A is more reactive than B as it has to lose only one electron from the outermost shell while metal B has to lose two electrons, to achieve a stable electronic configuration.
