Answer:

Potassium (K)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that potassium is the more reactive metal is because it is in group 1, as opposed to group 11 for copper, and being in group 1 means that it has one valence electron, which it can give away by reacting with almost any other element, and in doing so, it becomes much more stable.
