Ca= 2 ve
Be=2 ve
Mg=2 ve because they are in Group 2a.
 They are slightly less reactive than Group 1a, but more dense that Group 1a.

Explanation:

It is known that beryllium, calcium and magnesium are all group 2 elements.

Atomic number of Be is 4, magnesium has 12 and calcium has atomic number 20.

So, they contain 2 valence electrons and in order to attain stability they readily lose their valence electrons.

As a result, they tend to form an ion with +2 charge.

Since, it is easy to lose two electrons to attain stability hence, elements of group 2 are very reactive in nature.
