Beryllium (Be) and magnesium (Mg) are both alkaline earth metals found in Group 2 of the Periodic Table. They share similar chemical properties, such as the formation of oxides and hydroxides that are basic in nature. Both elements have two valence electrons, which they readily lose to form cations with a +2 charge in chemical reactions. Additionally, Be and Mg have relatively low densities and melting points compared to other metals.
