Explanation:

The alkali metal oxides are basic in nature. As we move down the group, the size of the metal ion increases, so the bonding between the metal and hydroxide ion is weak. Hence, they can easily lose OH- ion. So, down the group, basicity of alkali metal oxides and hydroxides increases.

Explanation:

The alkaline earth metals are six chemical elements in group 2 of the periodic table. They are beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), and radium (Ra).The elements have very similar properties: they are all shiny, silvery-white, somewhat reactive metals at standard temperature and pressure.

All the discovered alkaline earth metals occur in nature, although radium occurs only through the decay chain of uranium and thorium and not as a primordial element.[6] There have been experiments, all unsuccessful, to try to synthesize element 120, the next potential member of the group.
