Chemistry - Group 2

I know that Magnesium reacts very slowly with water but much faster with steam, however I would like to know please - what are the other Group 2 reactions with steam? For e.g for Calcium, Strontium and Barium - do they produce the same products as with Magnesium (i.e. Metal oxide + Hydrogen)?

OP
Hmm yes I thought so too - but I got a little confused a long the way because one textbook wrote something different. I think I'll just ignore that because the textbook is rather old anyway. :wink: Thank you!
