Given below are two statements, one is labelled as
Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : Beryllium has less negative value of reduction potential compared to the other alkaline earth metals
Reason R : Beryllium has large hydration energy due to small size of but relatively large value of atomisation enthalpy.

The major products of these five reactions, respectively, are:

I) Burns with dazzling brilliance in air to give oxide & nitride
II) On heating with hydrogen forms hydride
III) React with acid to displace H2(g) and strongly reducing in nature.
IV) Dissolve in liquid ammonia to give deep blue black solutions
The metal/ metals may be
