Why doesn't neon react with water?
Neon is a noble gas ... its valance shell is filled.
Is neon very reactive or is it not very reactive and why?
Neon is not reactive at all because it has a full p sublevel of electrons (8 valence electrons total). This is a very stable configuration, and as a result, neon is neither a reactant nor a product in normal chemical reactions.
How is the reactivity of elements related to valence electrons in atoms?
Valance electrons means that the element has not reached the octet configuration and is therefore reactive the reactivity depends on the no. of valance electrons the more valance electrons the more unstable the atom is and the more reactive it is.The gasses like helium neon xenon are all inert which means they have an octet configuration and have no delocalised or valance electrons.
How many valance electrons are found in an atom what elements Neon?
there are 8 electrons in the valence shell of neon
How many electrons does neon have in the third energy level?
Neon's complete electron configuration is: 1s22s22p6 Therefore, normally, neon does not have any electrons in its third energy level. As you can see, neon is a noble gas with 8 electrons in its valance shell, and is therefore chemically stable and is unlikely to react.
How many valance electrons in neon?
Eight - it has a full outer shell of electrons.
How many valance electrons are found in an atom of each what elements Neon?
there are 8 electrons in the valence shell of neon
How are the elements nitrogen and oxygen different from neon?
There are 7, 8 and 10 protons in nitrogen, oxygen and neon respectively. Neon has 8 valence electrons and is stable. Nitrogen and oxygen have 5 and 6 valence electrons respectively are are reactive.
Why neon and argon do not form compounds?
because they are both noble gases... the valance (or outermost electron shell) is full of electrons so neither argon nor neon need to get rid of or gain electrons. Essentially, both atoms do not need to react to become stable; they are already stable
What are Helium and neon classified as on the Periodic table?
these gases are the noble gases or inert gases. They are non reactive and have stable valence electrons
Why is neon the least reactive element?
Neon completely filled orbitals / energy levels. It has 8 valence electrons and have stable electronic configuration. Hence it is chemically inert and generally do not form compounds under normal conditions. Neon is not the least reactive.... helium is.
What element has more valance electrons than oxygen fewer valance electrons than neon more protons than sodium but fewer prtons than argon?
Chlorine
