Detailed Solution


As electropositivity of Metal increases reaction with water increases, 
 

large mathop Mlimits_{left( {IIA} right)} ; + ;2{H_2}O; to ;M{left( {OH} right)_2}; + ;{H_2} uparrow
large xrightarrow{{Be{H_2}; < ;Mg{H_2}; < ;Ca{H_2}; < ;Sr{H_2}; < ;Ba{H_2}}}


As the size of central metal increases electropositivity (or) metallic nature increases and hence ionic nature of hydride increases 
BeH2 & MgH2's are covalent hydrides 
Ca,Sr,BaH2 are ionic hydrides

large xrightarrow{{Be{O_2}; < ;Mg{O_2}; < ;Ca{O_2}; < ;Sr{O_2}; < ;Ba{O_2}}};:;Stability;of;peroxides


As the size of cation increases stability of peroxides increases
Since, a large size cation [Ba+2] will stabilise the larger size anion [O2-2]
