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