If you are in the same chem textbook as I am, (Chemistry, Connections to Our Changing World, from 1997) then the answer can be found on pg. 195, a page before the aforementioned question. If you aren't using this textbook, here's a summery of what it says: Magnesium and aluminum can be combined to form an alloy, which is used in things like car wheels, aircraft, tools, and furniture. It doesn't react with cold water, but it does react with hot water or steam. Calcium carbonate is found in chalk, marble, and limestone.

I am a member of the alkaline earth metals used to make fireworks and medicines what am i?
magnesium..
The 1st member of the alkaline earth metals group this element can be used as a neutron source?
BERYLLIUM :)
What is a element of the alkaline earth metals that is used to make fireworks and medicines?
Magnesium is used both in making fireworks and medicines.
Why are the groups alkaline earth metals halogens called so?
They react with water like the alkaline metal but does not change or melt with fire.The alkaline part of the name comes from the fact that these metal form alkaline solutions, when they react with water. The earth part was added to differentiate these from the group one metals. Alchemists called them earth metals because they though that their oxides were new elements.In the middle age the oxides of these metals (metals which are not known in time) are called alkaline earths: alkalinebecause these oxides react with water forming an alkaline solution and earths because in the past non-metallic compounds were called earths.
Similar in nature to the other alkaline earth metals salts of this metal are used in flares and fireworks producing a beautiful crimson color?
Strontium
Why do you think the most commonly used metal objects of transitional metals rather than alkali metals or alkaline earth metals?
Alkali and alkaline earth metals are too chemically reactive to stay in metallic form.
Why group 2A are called the alkali earth metals?
The name "Alkali" is given due to the alkaline nature of their oxides and hydroxides. The term "Alkali Earth Metals" is used as these metals are usually found as minerals in the Earth's crust.
Why alkali metals cannot be used in voltaic cells?
Alkali and Alkaline earth metals cannot be used in voltaic cells based on water as the solvent because of their rapid oxidation by that solvent.
What are alkali and alkaline metals used for?
they are used for metal-like things,
Why are the alkali metals so named?
When alkali metals react with water they produce an alkali (basic) solution. No because they form basic oxides and they neutralise acids
What is used to make fireworks and is a member of the alkaline earth metals?
Magnesium
I am a member of the alkaline earth metals used to make fireworks and medicines what am i?
magnesium..
You are a member of the alkaline earth metals used to make fireworks and medicines?
magnesium
What is a member of the alkaline earth metals used to make fireworks and medicines what is it?
The answer is MAGNESIUM!
Is the best conductors are non-metals?
No. Metals are the best conductors because they have the least resistance. That's why they are used in batteries. Alkaline cells are named so because they use alkali metals in their compositions.
Why are alkali and alkali earth metals not used for making conducting wires and equipment?
They burn in atmospheric air, such metals are stored in oil under dry nitrogen gas.
What element is a member of the alkaline earth metals used to make fireworks and medicinal?
The answer is Potassium.
