Answer:

They are in same group/family.

Explanation:

Alkaline earth metals are present in group 2 of periodic table. There are six elements in second group. Beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.

All have two valance electrons but in different energy levels. Thus they have similar chemical properties.

Electronic configuration of calcium.

Ca = [Ar] 4s²

Electronic configuration of strontium.

Sr = [Kr] 5s²

They are present in group two and have same number of valance electrons (two valance electrons) and show oxidation state +2 by loosing two valance electrons. They also show similar reactivity.

They react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Sr  +   O₂   →    2SrO

2Ca +   O₂   →    2CaO

this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,

SrO  + H₂O   →  Sr(OH)₂

CaO  + H₂O   →  Ca(OH)₂

With sulfur,

Sr + S   →  SrS

Ca + S   →  CaS

What observation did Rutherford make from his gold-foil experiment which
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a positive charge. Most alpha particles went right through. This showed that the gold atoms were mostly empty space. Some particles had their paths bent at large angles. A few even bounced backward. The only way this would happen was if the atom had a small, heavy region of positive charge inside it.
