The heavier alkaline earth metals react more vigorously than the lighter ones. [2] The alkaline earth metals have the second-lowest first ionization energies in their respective periods of the periodic table [4] because of their somewhat low effective nuclear charges and the ability to attain a full outer shell configuration by losing just two ...
Alkaline earth octacarbonyl complexes are a class of neutral compounds that have the general formula M(CO) 8 where M is a heavy Group 2 element (Ca, Sr, or Ba). The metal center has a formal oxidation state of 0 and the complex has a high level of symmetry belonging to the cubic O h point group .
Radium is the heaviest known alkaline earth metal and is the only radioactive member of its group. Its physical and chemical properties most closely resemble its lighter congener, barium. [4] Pure radium is a volatile, lustrous silvery-white metal, even though its lighter congeners calcium, strontium, and barium have a slight yellow tint. [4]
This table lists only the occurrences in compounds and complexes, not pure elements in their standard state or allotropes. Noble gas +1 Bold values are main oxidation states
The template provides a standardised table header for a List of isotopes, as is used in each of the 118 Isotopes of <element> articles. Parameters allow for adjustment of the table header structure, references and table footnotes. This header does not change existing rows: values, isotope-specific footnotes, structure, nor split decay routes ...

The darker more stable isotope region departs from the line of protons (Z) = neutrons (N), as the element number Z becomes larger. This is a list of chemical elements by the stability of their isotopes. Of the first 82 elements in the periodic table, 80 have isotopes considered to be stable. [1] Overall, there are 251 known stable isotopes in ...
