The density of Ca will be between that of Mg and Sr
Explanation:
Ca, Mg and Sr are group II elements. They are called alkali earth metals. The correct order of the elements in this group are: Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Ra.
Density is an intensive property of matter which describes the amount of matter(mass) per volume of a substance.
- Density varies proportionally with mass. The higher the mass, the higher its density.
- On the periodic table, atomic mass which the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom increases down the group.
- This implies a progradation in the value of density down the group. Therefore one expects that the value of density of Ca will fall between that of Mg and Sr. It cannot be more than 2.6g/cm³ nor less than 1.74g/cm³.

The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.
