Beryllium's reactivity with steam is less than that of other alkaline earth metals because:
It forms an insoluble hydroxide
It forms a soluble hydroxide
It forms a stable oxide layer
It forms a volatile hydride
Beryllium's reactivity with steam is less because it forms a stable and adherent oxide layer on its surface, which limits further reaction with steam.
