The Periodic Table: Group 2
S-Block Elements - Group 1 and 2



Trends in Group 2
Ionisation Energy
The energy change for removing both s electrons -
the sum of the first and second ionisation energies.

First ionisation energy decreases down the group:

More shells - more shielding from electrons.

Outer electron further from nucleus - easier to
remove them.

Despite more protons - nuclear charge
increases.

In the same period, the first ionisation energy of
the group 2 metal is larger than the group 1 metal
- group 2 metal has a smaller atomic radius.


Atomic Radius
Atomic radius increases down the group:

More shells

More shielding

Despite more protons


Reactivity
Reactivity increases down the group:

Outer electron is further from nucleus - more
shielding - more easily lost.

Group 2 - forms 2+ ions - need to consider 1st
and 2nd ionisation energy - 2 electrons involved.


Melting Points
Melting points decrease down the group:

Metallic bonding

Ionic radius increases - weaker electrostatic
attraction - more shielding.




4-Inorganic Chemistry and the Periodic Table 2

, Magnesium (hexagonal lattice) increases to
calcium (cubic face centred lattice).

Magnesium - lower melting point - hexagonal
lattice has weaker bonds.




Reactions of Group 2 Metals
Group 2 metals - 2+ oxidation state.

Apart from beryllium - all metals and react to form positive ions of charge 2+.

Reactivity increases down the group - sum of the first and second ionisation energy decreases down the group - easier to
remove the two outer electrons.

Reaction with Oxygen
All group 2 metals burn in air - react with oxygen (redox) and form ionic oxides of formula - MO.

2Ca (s) + O2 (g) → 2CaO (s)

Mg can react slowly without a flame - forms a layer of magnesium oxide.

Reaction with Chlorine
All group 2 element react when heated in chlorine:

Ca + Cl2 → CaCl2

Redox reaction

Reaction with Water
Magnesium - reacts slowly with cold water to produce an alkaline suspension of magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen and
gas:

Mg (s) + 2H2 O (l) → Mg(OH)2 (aq) + H2 (g)

Calcium, strontium and barium react rapidly with cold water to produce alkaline solutions of the metal hydroxide and
bubbles of hydrogen gas:

Ca (s) + 2H2 O (l) → Ca(OH)2 (aq) + H2 (g)

Observations - bubbles, metal disappears and temp increases.

When heated in steam - magnesium burns, producing magnesium oxide and hydrogen:

Mg (s) + H2 O (g) → MgO (s) + H2 (g)

Bright light/glow, white powder produced


Group 2 Oxides and Hydroxides
Group 2 oxides and hydroxides are bases.

General formula - MO and M(OH)2 .

Reaction of Oxides with Water
Magnesium oxide reacts slowly to form a slightly alkaline suspension of magnesium hydroxide:

MgO (s) + H2 O (l) → Mg(OH)2 (s)

Calcium oxide (quicklime) - reacts exothermically with water to form an alkaline suspension of calcium hydroxide:

CaO (s) + H2 O (l) → Ca(OH)2 ⇌ Ca2+ (aq) + 2OH− (aq)
Calcium hydroxide solution - limewater.

Strontium and barium oxides react with water to form alkaline solutions of the hydroxide:

BaO (s) + H2 O (l) → Ba2+ (aq) + 2OH− (aq)




4-Inorganic Chemistry and the Periodic Table 3

, Reactions with Acids
Oxides and hydroxides of the group 2 metals are bases - react with acids to form salts and water:

MO (s) + 2H+ (aq) → M2+ (aq) + H2 O (l)

M(OH)2 (s) + 2H+ (aq) → M2+ (aq) + 2H2 O (l)

Magnesium oxide reacts with dilute sulfuric acid to form magnesium sulfate and water:

MgO (s) + H2 SO4 (aq) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2 O (l)

Calcium hydroxide reacts with nitric acid solution to form calcium nitrate and water:

Ca(OH)2 (s) + 2HNO3 (aq) → Ca(NO3 )2 (aq) + 2H2 O (l)

Beryllium oxide is amphoteric - acts as a base and an acid:

BeO (s) + 2H+ (aq) → Be2+ (aq) + H2 O (l)

BeO (s) + 2OH− (aq) + H2 O (l) → Be(OH)4 2− (aq)

Group 1 hydroxides react with acids in the same way to form salts - are water soluble and form alkaline solutions:

2NaOH (aq) + H2 SO4 (aq) → Na2 SO4 (aq) + 2H2 O (l)

Reaction of Limewater with Carbon Dioxide
Carbon dioxide - acidic oxide.

Reacts with the base calcium hydroxide to form the salt, calcium carbonate and water.

Calcium carbonate - insoluble and appears as a milky precipitate.

Test for carbon dioxide:

Ca(OH)2 (aq) + CO2 (g) → CaCO3 (s) + H2 O (l)

If carbon dioxide is passed into a suspension of calcium carbonate, the milkiness slowly clears as the soluble acid salt,
calcium hydrogen carbonate is formed:

CaCO3 (s) + H2 O (l) + CO2 (g) → Ca(HCO3 )2 (aq)

Calcium hydrogen carbonate is soluble in water - calcium carbonate is insoluble.

To test between a carbonate and a hydrogen carbonate of a group 1 metal.

A solution of the test substance is added to a solution of calcium chloride:

If carbonate - a white precipitate of calcium carbonate is seen.

If hydrogen carbonate - no precipitate forms until the mixture is heated.

Hydrogen carbonate ions decompose forming carbonate ions, carbon dioxide and water:

2HCO3 2− (aq) → CO3 2− (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2 O (l)

Carbonate ions then react with the calcium ions to form a precipitate of insoluble calcium carbonate:

CO3 2− (aq) + Ca2+ (aq) → CaCO3 (s)



Solubility of Group 2 Hydroxides and Sulphates
Solubility of group 2 hydroxides increases down the group.

Solubility of group 2 sulphates decreases down the group.

Sodium sulphate + solution of calcium, strontium or barium compounds → white precipitate of an insoluble sulphate
produced.

Test for sulphate ions:

BaCl2 (aq) + Na2 SO4 (aq) → 2NaCl (aq) + BaSO4 (s)

Ba2+ (aq) + SO4 2− (aq) → BaSO4 (s)

Sodium Hydroxide Sodium Sulphate
