Step-by-step explanation:

As it is known that elements present in group 2 are also known as alkaline earth metals.

Elements that belong to this group are beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium.

Since, all of them are placed in group 2 this means that all these elements have 2 valence electrons.

Hence, all these elements will also have similar chemical properties.
