Question
Two elements A and B have similar chemical properties. They don't form solid hydrogencarbonates, but react with nitrogen to form nitrides. A and B, respectively, are :Na and RbNa and CaCs and BaLi and Mg
Solution
The elements A and B are Na (Sodium) and Rb (Rubidium). These two elements are in the same group (Group 1: Alkali Metals) on the periodic table, which explains their similar chemical properties. They do not form solid hydrogencarbonates, but they do react with nitrogen to form nitrides. The other pairs mentioned (Na and Ca, Cs and Ba, Li and Mg) do not share the same group on the periodic table, and therefore do not have similar chemical properties.
