C) They each form similar compounds when combined with oxygen.
Explanation:
The given elements have a common characteristics as they each form similar compounds when combined with oxygen.
Beryllium, magnesium and calcium all are located in the alkaline earth group.
Elements in the same group have the same chemical properties.
- Density and melting point are physical properties of matter which varies down a group on the periodic table.
- Their reaction with oxygen denotes a statement of their chemical properties.
- Chemical properties of matter is a function of their valency.
- Group two elements have a valency of two. They have two electrons in their outermost shell.
- Therefore, they all form ionic bonds when they react with oxygen.

Bond number
The characteristic of reactions that depends on valence electrons is the bond type.
In chemistry, a chemical bond could be;
Ionic
Covalent
The type of bond formed depends on the number of valence electrons present. When there are few valence electrons on an atom, it mostly forms ionic bonds.
When there are more electrons on an atoms, it mostly forms covalent bonds and the electrons between the atoms are shared.
The number of hydrogen atoms that are in 4.40 mol of ammonium sulfide is 2.12 x10^25 atoms
calculation
find the number of moles of Hydrogen in ammonium sulfide (NH4)2S
that is 4.40 x number of hydrogen atoms in (NH4)2S ( 4x2= 8 atoms)
moles is therefore= 4.40 x8= 35.2 moles
by use of Avogadro's law constant
that is 1mole = 6.02 x10^23 atoms
35.2 moles=?
by cross multiplication
{35.2 moles x 6.02 x10^23} /1 mole = 2.12 x10^25 atoms
