Question

Name two elements you would expect to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium. What is the basis for your choice?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

✏✏Calcium (Ca) and strontium (Sr) are expected to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium (Mg).

✏✏ This is because the number of valence electrons (2) is same in all these three elements

✏✏there valence electron is same.

✏✏So chemical reaction must be also same only

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

•Magnesium has valency 2 .

•So,the similar to magnesium elements I.e,which have 2 valence electrons are :-

>Calcium (Ca)

>Stromium(St)

•In both of cases the valence electrons number is 2.

•So,we prefer them.
