What element is not found in most organic compounds?

Uranium. Also fluorine, lead, any of the noble gases, all the lanthanides, gold, silver, copper...


Is a fluorine a noble gas?

Noble gases are, for all intents and purposes, unreactive - there are a few noble gas compounds but you have to really work at it to convince noble gases to form bonds. Fluorine is an extremely reactive gas, hence it is not a noble gas. It is a halogen - the most reactive halogen of them all.


Which two noble gases can form compounds with fluorine?

krypton will form compounds like KrF2. Xenon will form compounds like XeF4, XeF6 etc.


Name some examples of other elements that fluorine makes compounds with?

Fluorine can form compounds with every element except Helium. Many compounds with the noble gases (such as neon fluoride) are pretty unstable and most are very reactive, but they can be formed.


The elements that do not ordinarily form compounds are?

Noble gases do not normally form compounds.


What are neon's compounds used for?

Neon doesn't form any compounds. It is an inert noble gas. Only the very heavy noble gases have ever been made to react and then only under extreme pressure and temperature and with VERY reactive substances like fluorine and oxygen. Neon is too small and too stable to form compounds.


Do noble gases react with metals and non metals?

Nobles gasses will not react with metals or most nonmetals. Only a few noble gasses compounds exits, and none exist naturally. Noble gasses will only form compounds with fluorine and oxygen.


Do noble gases make 1 charged ions?

No. Noble gases have completely filled orbitals and are chemically inert. So they generally do not form compounds / ions. Xenon, a noble gas, forms covalent compounds with oxygen or fluorine. In addition, halogens (or group 17 elements) form anions with -1 charge.


Why noble gases react with fluorine as you know noble gases are more stable?

Because fluorine is having the most electronegativity and is the most reactive non metal.


What do noble gases all have in common?

They are not very reactive and they do not form bonds with each other, so molecules of noble gases cannot be formed, there are only atoms, i.e. they are monatomic gases.. Up until 1962 no noble gas compounds were known however compounds of Argon, Krypton Xenon and Radon all form unstable compounds with fluorine.


Why are noble gases never found bonded?

Noble gases are never found bonded because they have 8 valence electrons, making them stable. Since it is stable it has no available space in it valence energy level to bond with other atoms. The above is true for Helium and Neon. Since 1962 compounds of the other noble gases have been prepared, most notably compounds of xenon with fluorine. All of these compounds are highly reactive and unstable.


Noble gases usually exist as what?

Noble gases exist in the nature as gases; only a small number of (all man made) compounds of noble gases are known.
