Group 2, or the alkaline earth metals.
These metals are called alkaline earth metals.
They are called alkaline earth metals. They are a group of highly reactive metals.

Elements in the second group have 2 outer shell electrons and also very reactive. What are they called?
The 2nd most reactive is Cesium after Francium. If you disregard Francium because it is radioactive, then it would be Rubidium after Cesium.
The order of reactivity from most to least is sodium, copper, gold. Sodium is highly reactive due to its low ionization energy, copper is less reactive as it forms a protective oxide layer, and gold is the least reactive among these metals.
They are called alkaline earth metals. They are a group of highly reactive metals.
The elements in the first group of the periodic table, known as the alkali metals, have one outer shell electron and are highly reactive. However, the elements with 2 outer shell electrons that are also very reactive belong to the second group, known as the alkaline earth metals. This group includes elements such as beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium. These metals readily react with water and acids, making them quite reactive, though generally less so than alkali metals.
Alkaline earth metals are the second group of the periodic table. They are shiny, silvery-white, and relatively reactive. Alkaline earth metals have two valence electrons in their outer shell and tend to form 2+ cations in chemical reactions.
Very high. It's an alkali metal, in the most reactive metal family. Don't get me wrong, it's the weakest of the alkali metals, but more reactive than any other metals. For a VERY violent reaction, try potassium. For a VERY dangerous reaction, use pure francium.
Alkaline Earth Metals
The group number of alkali earth metals is group 2 on the periodic table. These metals include beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium. They are located in the second column from the left on the periodic table.
