Would you expect strontium (Sr) to be more like potassium (K)or bromine (Br)?
Strontium, with atomic symbol Sr, would be more like potassium, because both strontium and potassium are active metals and bromine is a nonmetal. The actual element with symbol S is sulfur, and that would be more like bromine, because those elements are both nonmetals.
What are the chemical symbols for lithium xenon oxygen potassium zinc strontium?

Strontium is one of the most common elements found on earth. It is mainly found in igneous rock, and sedimentary formations.
What would react more vigorously with water strontium or calcium?
Strontium. They both have two electrons in their outermost energy level, however since the electrons are farther from the nucleus in Strontium than in Calcium, Strontium is more readily able to shed these two electrons to achieve a more stable state with it's outermost energy level being complete (with 8 electrons).
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in strontium?
38 protons. If it is neutral, it will also have 38 electrons. The number of neutrons obviously varies, depending on the isotope.
Why is radioactive Strontium Ninety very dangerous to your health?
Strontium 90 is beta active with a half life of 28 years. It tends to be absorbed in the body's bones and therefore it can give a continued dose for years which can affect the bone marrow. See link to Wikipedia
