Question

Q.2. Name two elements you would expect to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium. What is the basis
for your choice?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Calcium (Ca) and strontiun (Sr) are expected to shows chemical reaction similar to magnesium (Mg). This is because the number of valence electron(2) is same in all these three elements and since chemical properties are due to valence electrons, they show same chemical reactions.

I hope this may help you

Answer 2

Answer:

Calcium (Ca) and Strontium (Sr)

Explanation:

Since they have same number of valence electrons as Mg i.e 2.

So, they are more likely to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium.
