  • Elements with Two Valence Electrons: Properties & Examples
    The elements that have two valence electrons are located in Group 2 of the periodic table, also known as the alkaline earth metals. These elements include:

    * Beryllium (Be)

    * Magnesium (Mg)

    * Calcium (Ca)

    * Strontium (Sr)

    * Barium (Ba)

    * Radium (Ra)

    These elements all have two electrons in their outermost energy level, which makes them highly reactive and likely to lose these two electrons to form +2 ions.
