There is only one neon gas. It's name is neon. It is an element, and is on the Periodic Table of elements. It produces a red glow. There are other gases used in neon lights. Here they are along with their color of glow: Helium, peach glow. Argon, sky blue. Krypton, pale mauve. Xenon, pale violet. These colors combined with different colored glass make the neon signs you see every day be in all colors.
What else can I help you with?
Why neon was given this name?
When discovered, it's properties in an electrical field were unique to anything discovered up to that time. So it was named "Neon", a "New" type of gas. Since then, we have discovered that a variety of gases have vivid color effects in an electrical field (which is why there are different colors of "neon" lights).
What percentage of our atmosphere is made up of gases other than oxygen and nitrogen?
Approximately 1% of Earth's atmosphere is made up of gases other than oxygen and nitrogen, including argon, carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of gases like helium, neon, and methane.
The gases in your atmosphere aside from the oxygen and nitrogen make up about what percentage of air?
Oxygen and nitrogen are the two most abundant gases in the atmosphere. They make up 99% of the air.
Which is more abundant in air krypton or neon?
Neither krypton nor neon are abundant in Earth's atmosphere. Both gases are present in very small amounts, with neon being more abundant than krypton. Neon makes up about 0.0018% of the atmosphere, while krypton is even less abundant.
Is neon an organic compound?
No neon is not a organic compound cause it does not contain carbon. The formula for neon is " Ne"
Are all neon lights made up neon gases?
Neon is the most used gas in neon lights but it also contains argon, Krypton, Xenon
Are all neons lights made up of neon gases?
Neon is the most used gas in neon lights but it also contains argon, Krypton, Xenon
Are all neon lights made up of neon gases why?
No. Only the lights that give off a reddish light contain actual neon. Different color lights contain different gasses such as helium or argon. This is because every substance has a unique emission spectrum which dictates what colors of light it will give off if its electrons are excited such as by an electrical current.
What kind of gas lights up lights bulbs into various colors?
Nobles gases like argon, neon....

Which family is made up of all gases?
Family #18 is made up of all gasesIt includes Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and RadonThey are also called the Noble Gases family, for they are not very reactive
What is the hidden meaning of knee lights?
knee on lights = neon lights knee on lights = neon lights
What noble gas is used in neon lights?
Neon, obviously. Less obviously: the only true neon lights are those that give off an orange-red glow. Other colors result from other gases; for example, argon is used to give a blue color. Nowadays most "neon" lamps are really mercury vapor fluorescent lamps with tinted glass providing the color. A real neon light is almost always clear when turned off; the mercury vapor ones have a sort of cloudy appearance like other fluorescent bulbs.
What percentage of our atmosphere is made up of gases other than oxygen and nitrogen?
Approximately 1% of Earth's atmosphere is made up of gases other than oxygen and nitrogen, including argon, carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of gases like helium, neon, and methane.
What inert gas lights up when electricity passes through it?
Neon lights up when electricity passes through it, producing a reddish-orange glow.
What things that you could find at home is made up of argon?
Argon is chemically inert, it does not combine with other elements. So there wont be any items at home made from argon, except for the neon lights. Neon lights when mixed with argon produces different colour depending on the ratio of each.
What are the pixels of a plasma display made up of?
The pixels of a plasma screen are made up of a gases (xenon, neon and helium) between two panels. These gases glow to different colours when a voltage is passed across them (they are accelerated towards the screen and light is produced when they hit the screen)
