Compare the properties of Ca and Mg, how does Ca and Mg react with water?

Ca and Mg are metals. They are both in the second group. But since Ca is lower than Mg, it has stronger properties (that is, two identical reactions of these elements with the same reagents will go through at different rates)
Examples of reactions:
1) 2Mg + 02 = MgO (slower)
2Ca + 02 = CaO (faster)
2) Mg + 2H2O = Mg (OH) 2 + H2 (slower)
Ca + 2H2O = Ca (OH) 2 + H2 (faster)

One of the components of a person's success in our time is receiving modern high-quality education, mastering the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for life in society. A person today needs to study almost all his life, mastering everything new and new, acquiring the necessary professional qualities.
