Two different elements are likely to have similar chemical properties when they have the same number of valence electrons. Elements with the same number of valence electrons are found in the same column of the Periodic Table.

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. And since chemical properties are due to valence electrons, they show same chemical reactions.

Hope this helpzzzz
