Answer:

Calcium and Beryllium are the elements that will show chemical reactions similar to magnesium. This is because beryllium and calcium belong to the same group of periodic table as magnesium. All of them have similar electronic configurations with 2 valence electrons each.

Beryllium shows similar properties with magnesium because:

  • They are placed in a same group (Alkaline earth metals) and thus share similar properties.
  • They both are soft metals and have low melting and boiling point.
  • They both have similar outer electronic configuration.
  • They both have low ionization energy because of what they lose valence electrons readily.
  • They both are highly electropositive.
  • They both exhibit an oxidation state of +2 in their compounds.
  • Oxides of both these elements are basic in nature.
  • They both are true metals.
