X-ray radiation can be deadly but its only deadly in large amounts when you get an x-ray it is only for a picture. Gamma radiation is the most harmful radiation as it penetrates everything and gives off deadly radiation and it isn't very common.

Answer:

Se detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:

- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.

- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.

- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.

- Their electron configurations are:

$Ca^{20}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^3,3p^6,4s^2\\\\Mg^{12}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2$
