Answer:
Most of the chemistry of the alkaline-earth metals (Group IIA) can be predicted from the behavior of the alkali metals (Group IA). ... The alkaline-earth metals tend to lose two electrons to form M 2+ ions (Be2+, Mg2+, Ca2+, and so on). These metals are less reactive than the neighboring alkali metal.
