In group 2 of the periodic table, the most metallic and least-metallic elements are Radium and Beryllium respectively.

Explanation:

  • The list of elements present in group 2 of the periodic table is as follows:
  1. Beryllium
  2. Magnesium
  3. Calcium
  4. Strontium
  5. Barium
  6. Radium
  • The metallic character of elements shows variation in period as well as group.
  • When we move from right to left across the period, the metallic character increases. Thus the first element of the group is more metallic whereas the last element is less metallic.
  • On the other hand, in the group, the metallic character increases from top to bottom due to the atomic size. Thus the first element of the group is less metallic whereas the last element is more metallic.
  • Thus it can be inferred that Beryllium is least metallic whereas Radium is most metallic.
