How do you find the amount of neutrons in an atom by looking at the periodic table?
Subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass
200
These metals are the second most reactive group and include Mg (Magnesium). They have two valence electrons
Alkaline Earth Metals

How was Mendeleev's periodic table different than the modern periodic table?
less elements and it was in rows of increasing mass
