Electronegativity & Melting & Boiling Points of Alkaline Earth Metals Gp2A | (L-44) | 2nd year Chem

"Hello everyone, Professor Javed Khan here, M.Phil in Chemistry. Today, let's dive into the fascinating world of alkaline earth metals found in Group 2A of the periodic table. Electronegativity, a measure of an element's ability to attract electrons, tends to decrease as you move down the group. This means that alkaline earth metals have a relatively low electronegativity compared to other elements. This property influences their chemical behavior and reactivity. When it comes to melting and boiling points, alkaline earth metals generally have higher melting and boiling points than alkali metals in Group 1. This is due to stronger metallic bonding resulting from the increased number of valence electrons and higher effective nuclear charge as you go down the group. As a result, alkaline earth metals are typically solids at room temperature and have higher melting and boiling points compared to many other elements. Stay curious and keep exploring the wonders of chemistry. Don't forget to like and subscribe for more exciting insights.
