Answer: K and Na
Explanation:
Potassium and Sodium have a chemical symbol of K and Na respectively.
They have similar chemical properties because both
- have only one valence electron,
- form univalent positive ion when they donate their lone outermost electron as shown below
Na --> Na+ + e-
K --> K+ + e-
- are good reducing agents
- react with cold water vigorously to liberate hydrogen gas and form alkalis, so they are known as alkali metals.
- K and Na are placed in Group 1 of the periodic table.
Thus, unlike the other pairs given, K and Na, have the most similar chemical properties
