They have +2 O.S.
Group 1 or alkali metals (+1 oxidation number). Group 2 or alkaline earth metals (+2 oxidation number).
The question should be either 'alkali metals' or 'alkaline earth metals'. For alkali metals or group 1 elements, the oxidation number is +1 (note. hyddrogen can have +1 and -1). For alkaline earth metals, the oxidation number is +2 In addition all these elements will have an oxidation number of 0 in their elemental form
The oxidation number of alkaline earth metals, such as beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), and barium (Ba), is typically +2. This is because they tend to lose two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
The oxidation numbers for elements in Group 1A (alkali metals) are typically +1. For elements in Group 2A (alkaline earth metals), the oxidation number is typically +2.
The oxidation number of lead (Pb) in the compound PbCl2 has to be what?
Group 1 or alkali metals (+1 oxidation number). Group 2 or alkaline earth metals (+2 oxidation number).
Group 2 or alkaline earth metals
The question should be either 'alkali metals' or 'alkaline earth metals'. For alkali metals or group 1 elements, the oxidation number is +1 (note. hyddrogen can have +1 and -1).

It is in alkaline group.Not in alkaline earth group.It is in alkaline group because, Hydrogen has maximum oxidation number of +1.It react with Halogens.Displaced by other alkaline metals.
The oxidation number of lead (Pb) in the compound PbCl2 has to be what?
The oxidation state of oxygen in alkaline earth metal oxides is -2. Alkaline earth metals always have a +2 oxidation state, which means oxygen has to have a -2 oxidation state to balance the charges in the compound.
Alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons.
Alkali metals have a +1 oxidation state and form compounds with a 1:1 ratio of metal to other element, while alkaline earth metals have a +2 oxidation state and form compounds with a 1:2 ratio. By analyzing the stoichiometry of compounds formed with these metals, you can distinguish between alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
Not all metals have a number in parentheses. The number in parentheses typically indicates the oxidation state of the metal in a compound, which is relevant for transition metals that can exhibit multiple oxidation states. However, many metals, especially those in groups like alkali and alkaline earth metals, commonly have a fixed oxidation state and may not require such notation.
It can be a any group. Generally they shows +2 in group 2.
