Element with atomic number 38 i.e Sr will show the same physical and chemical properties as that of calcium whose atomic number is 20

This is because , they belong to the same group of the periodic table (group II) , All the elements of a group have similar properties .

in group 2 only Be doesnot show similar properties to other elements because of its diagonal relationship with Al .

the rest of them show the same physical and chemical properties.
