Want this question answered?
An element with two electrons in its highest energy level is probably an alkaline earth metal. More specifically, it is likely magnesium or calcium, as these are the most common alkaline earth metals.
They are the alkaline metals.
the number of elements in the atom The group the element is in on the periodic table (how many valence electrons it has). Metals increase in reactivity from right to left on the periodic table and non metals increase in reactivity from left to right, with the exception of group group 18, which is not reactive, and Hydrogen, which is very reactive.
Flammability, reactivity with oxygen, pH level are chemical properties; smell is also a consequence of the chemical composition.
Most of the spices are alkaline ....So its also alkaline too
They are called Alkaline Earth Metals

Group 2 elements ... also called alkaline earth metals.
The alkaline earth metals have two electrons in their outermost s sublevel.

Alkali and alkaline earth metals
The alkaline earth metals (group 2 on the periodic table) have two valence electrons (electrons in their outer level).
The element magnesium has four electron energy levels and two electrons in its outer energy level in the neutral atom. Use the link to Wikipedia for more details.
