Please help 1. State the relationship between atomic radius and metallic reactivity down group 2. Explain in terms of atomic structure why this relationship occurs. as atomic radius down group 2

Atomic radius is directly proportional to Metallic reactivity in group 2.

Explanation:

Atomic radius is directly proportional to Metallic reactivity in group 2.

As we move down the group in group 2 which is called as the alkaline earth metals, the atomic number increases due to which the subshell increases. And the outermost shell's electron are less tightly held to the nucleus of the atom. Since the electrons are loosely held that means they can easily participate in reactions and that what makes it reactive down the 2nd group. Therefore alkaline earth metals with higher atomic number are more chemically reactive.

the answer is a for sure mark brainliest i had got this right on usatestprep

answer carbon and three oxygen atoms;
