    The right answer is A, that is Rubidium (Rb)

    Explanation:

    Strontium has 2 electrons in the valance shell and is alkaline earth metal but relatively reactive.

    Rubidium comes in period 5 and under alkali metals and very reactive towards oxygen and highly reactive than strontium and other option

    This element has 2 electrons in its valence subshell (5s) according to Madelung rule.

    Madelung rule that if the two orbitals have the same n+l value they fill in increasing order of n.

    So the right answer is A, that is Rubidium (Rb)
