They are a series of elements, or metals, on the Periodic Table of Elements. The alkaline earth metals are: beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium (i.e, the ones with two electrons in their outer shell and common oxidation state +2, right next to the alkali metals with common oxidation state +1). They're all silvery-colored and soft, and they combine with water to form alkaline hydroxides, but not as readily as the alkali metals do.
No. The alkali and alkaline earth metals are very reactive.
The alkaline earth metals are in the group 2 of the periodic table of Mendeleev.
All alkaline earth metals and their salts are reactive and they have a blue-print that identifies them as an alkaline earth metal but metals exist as metals, and salts as salts, with different structural compounds.
Beryllium, magnesium and barium are three more alkaline earth metals.
Alkaline earth metals do not exist , only alkali earth metals
Alkaline metals and alkaline earth metals form their oxides when burnt. These oxides are base.
Group 2 elements in the periodic table are the alkaline earth metals.
alkali 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.
Radium is in the alkaline earth metals.
Alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons.
no
Alkaline Earth Metals
The alkaline earth metals are those in the same group as calcium; they have two valence electrons.
