Beryllium and Aluminium have similar properties because they
are both metals
belong to the same group
belong to the same period
are positioned diagonally to each other
Explanation
Beryllium and Aluminium exhibit similar properties because of their diagonal relationship on the periodic table, meaning they are positioned diagonally to each other, resulting in comparable atomic sizes, electronegativity, and a tendency to form covalent compounds, despite being in different periods and groups.
