Question

Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba are group 2 metals which of these will form ions most readily and why.

Answer 1

Hey Mate!

Answer:

Barium

Explanation:

Barium will form ions most readily as its the lowest in the group, and the group trend is that as we go lower down the group, ionization energy, which is basically the energy required to form an ion, decreases as force of attraction decreases too.

Hope it Helped!
