Next SectionPeriodic Trends and Diagonal Relationships

The reactions of the Alkaline Earth Metals are driven by the presence of two valence electrons in their outer shell. 

Reactivity of the Alkaline Earth Metals

The presence of an additional valence electron in the outer shell of the Alkaline Earth Metals make them undergo more reactions than the Alkali Metals.
