because down the group the cation becomes gets larger so the hydration energy decreases. so the solubility decreases
1) NaOH : two top alkaline earth metals' solubility is decreasing as we can see from cloudy to lots of solid and two bottom metals' solubility is also decreasing in observing difference amount of solid between Sr(NO3)2 and Ba(NO3)2 2) NaCl: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble. 3) NABr: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble. 4) NaI: all of the alkaline earth metals are soluble. 5) Na2SO4: solubility of alkaline earth metals is decreasing from clear to solid and cloudy. 6) Na2CO3: solubility of alkaline earth metals from Mg(No3)2 to Sr(NO3)2 is decreasing and after Sr(NO3)2, solubility is increasing. 7) Na2C2O4: solubility of alkaline earth metals is decreasing from clear to solid and cloudy.
The trend in solubility of alkaline earth metals increases as you move down the group on the periodic table.
The solubility of alkaline earth metal compounds generally increases down the group in the periodic table. This trend is particularly evident for hydroxides and sulfates, where the solubility of hydroxides increases from beryllium to barium, while sulfates show a decrease in solubility from magnesium to barium. The increase in ionic size and decrease in lattice energy as one moves down the group contribute to this trend. Overall, this results in greater solubility for heavier alkaline earth metals compared to their lighter counterparts.
Not all salts of the earth alkaline metals are soluble in water. Alkaline metal salts like lithium and sodium salts are generally soluble in water, while salts of heavier alkaline earth metals like calcium and barium may have limited solubility in water.
Alkaline metals and alkaline earth metals form their oxides when burnt. These oxides are base.
As you move down the periodic table, the solubility of alkali metals (Group 1) generally increases due to their decreasing lattice energy and increasing hydration enthalpy, making their compounds more soluble in water. In contrast, for alkaline earth metals (Group 2), solubility trends can vary; while the solubility of some sulfates decreases down the group, most hydroxides and carbonates become less soluble. Overall, alkali metal compounds tend to be more soluble compared to those of alkaline earth metals.
Group 2 elements in the periodic table are the alkaline earth metals.

The alkaline earth metals are metals!
No. The alkali and alkaline earth metals are very reactive.
Radium is the radioactive metal among alkaline earth metals.
Alkaline earth metals have two valence electrons, while alkali metals have one valence electron. Alkaline earth metals are harder and have higher melting points compared to alkali metals. Additionally, alkaline earth metals are less reactive than alkali metals.
