Alkaline earth metal whose cation isoelectric with Kr is strontium (Sr).

What is Alkaline earth metal?

Six chemical elements from group 2 of the periodic chart make up the alkaline earth metals. They are boron (R), barium (Ba), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), magnesium (Mg), beryllium (Be), and radium (Ra). The elements share many characteristics, including being glossy, silvery-white, moderately reactive metals at standard pressure and temperature.

They share a full outer s-orbital structurally, meaning that this orbital includes all two of its electrons, which the alkaline earth metals rapidly lose to form cations with a charge of +2 and an oxidation state of +2.

All of the identified alkaline earth metals are found in nature, albeit radium is not a primordial element but only appears as part of the decay chain of uranium and thorium.

The chemical element strontium has the atomic number 38 and the symbol Sr. Strontium is a soft, silver-white, yellowish metallic element that is an alkaline earth metal and has a strong reactivity to chemicals. When the metal is exposed to air, a thick layer of dark oxide forms. Similar to its two vertical neighbors in the periodic table, barium and calcium, strontium exhibits physical and chemical characteristics. It is mostly obtained from the minerals celestine and strontianite, where it is found naturally.
