As alkaline Earth metals have low ionization energies and high electropositive character, they are very reactive and have a strong tendency to lose valence electrons, though less than alkali metals. The reactivity of these elements increases on going down the group. The ch..

The elements of beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba) and radium (Ra), constitute group 2 of the periodic tab..

The solubilities of sulphates of alkaline Earth metals decrease as we go down the group...

The Earth's Magnetism - A magnetic compass was used to help the sailors for navigational purpose. But recently it has been discovered that some migrant birds have magnetic sensors in their heads, which help to guide them using the Earth's magnetic field. William Gilbert suggeste..

Due to their low ionization energies all group 2 elements tend to lose their valence electrons and act as strong reducing agents. The decrease of the reduction potential values down the group, indicate an increase of strength as a reducing agent. However the members of this group are weaker reduci..

Sodium hydroxide is a white deliquescent solid having melting point at 591 K (318°C) It is stable towards heat It is highly soluble in water and considerable amount of heat is evolved due to the formation of a number of hydrates e.g., NaOH.H 2 O, NaOH.2H 2 O. It is also soluble in alcohol ..

50% Anti-corrosion agent 6% Optical brightener 0.3% Water and inorganic filler 19.7% Tripolyphosphate can produce hydroxyl ions by reacting with water. It keeps the wash water slightly alkaline, to emulsify grease particles. They can also tie up calcium and magnesium ion..
