Group 2 elements in the periodic table are the alkaline earth metals.
All of the alkaline earth metals are naturally occurring and they share similar properties: they are all rather reactive metals under standard conditions.
Sr is in group 2. It is an alkaline earth metal.

group 2a are called the alkaline earth metals
they are harder than alkali metals
they are harder than alkali metals
they all have at least one electron

Group 2 elements in the periodic table are the alkaline earth metals.
Alkaline Earth Metals
They both are highly reactive and are not found in nature in elemental state.
All of the alkaline earth metals are naturally occurring and they share similar properties: they are all rather reactive metals under standard conditions.
Sr is in group 2. It is an alkaline earth metal.
* alkaline metals contain the higher melting and also the boiling points. * These metals are present in the earths crust which does not have a basic form. * Alkaline earth metals are distributed in structure which is named as rock. * These metals have density which is low. * Alkaline earth metals have low electron affinity and as wells as low electronegativity. * One of the basic characteristic is, it contains two electrons in their outer shell.
Group 2 (alkaline earth metals): lithium, sodium, potassium, caesium, rubidium, francium.
Alkaline metals and alkaline earth metals form their oxides when burnt. These oxides are base.
