The reduction potential of alkaline earth metals is ___________ alkali

1.	The reduction potential of alkaline earth metals is ___________ alkali metals.(a) may be equal to(b) greater than(c) less than(d) equal toThis question was addressed to me in an online interview.The question is from s-Block Elements in chapter s-Block Elements of Chemistry – Class 11
Answer» Right choice is (c) less than Easiest explanation: ALTHOUGH the alkaline earth METALS are reductants in nature, their reducing POTENTIAL is not as greater as alkali metals. Beryllium has a negative value when compared to the other elements in its group, this is due to the LARGE hydration energy associated with the small size of beryllium.
