Yes. For many years it was believed that krypton (Kr) was totally inert. However, around 50 years ago, it was found that it did react with fluorine gas to form krypton difluoride (KrF2). Since then the following compounds of Kr have also been created/found:
Krypton Tetrachloride KrCl4
Krypton Hexabromine KrBr6
Krypton Dichromate Kr2Cr2O7
Krypton Chromate KrCrO4
Krypton Tetrafluoride KrF4
Krypton Dioxide KrO2

Krypton is a noble gas and is generally considered chemically inert, meaning it does not readily react with other elements or compounds under normal conditions. However, under extreme conditions such as high pressure and temperature, krypton can form compounds with highly electronegative elements like fluorine and oxygen. In these cases, krypton can participate in chemical reactions.

What group is krypton in?
Krypton and the other elements in group 18 comprise the noble gases. See links below.
What is the chemical formula for fluorine and krypton?
F is the symbol for fluorine. Kr is the symbol for krypton.
Is helium flamible?
No, helium does not readily undergo any chemical reactions.
Is dissolving kool aid in water a chemical or physical change?
Any chemical reactions - a physical phenomenon.
Is reactions a chemical or physical?
Chemical reactions are chemical processes.
Does bromine behave the most like krypton in chemical reactions?
I do not think that Bromine behaves like Krypton in chemical reactions. Krypton is very unreactive due to the fact that it has a full stable set of valence electrons, and Bromine is extremly reactive and has high electronegativity because is does not have a full stable set of valence electrons. Although, I do suppose that if a Bromine atom were to become a negative ion (Br+1) by gaining another electron, it would act as if it were a Krypton atom.
What are some chemical properties of krypton?
a chemical property for krypton is... it does not burn.
What are helium neon argon and krypton?
They are Noble Gases aka Inert Gases. They don't undergo chemical reactions very easily.
Does helium have any chemical reactions?
no. it is not known to undergo any checmical reactions
What group is krypton in?
Krypton and the other elements in group 18 comprise the noble gases. See links below.
What are krypton's properties?
Krypton is an inert gas, which does not engage in chemical reactions; it is also one of the heavier inert (or noble) gases. Other than that, it is colorless, odorless, and very inconspicuous. It was actually quite hard for chemists even to find it, hence the name krypton, meaning hidden.
Can atoms of krypton exist independently?
Yes: Atoms of krypton almost always do exist independently of chemical bonding to any other atoms.
What is the chemical property of the element krypton?
Krypton is an unreactive gas.
Are there any chemical reactions that can be affected by magnetic or electric fields?
Yes, several chemical reactions are affected by magnetic or electric fields.
do oreos undertake any chemical changes?
Do Oreos undertake any chemical changes? Yes. How can Oreo be a chemical changes? Cooking involve chemical reactions, modifications of chemical molecules.
What element is krypton 36?
Krypton is a "noble" or inert gas with an atomic mass of 36, meaning that the element has 36 protons in the nucleus, and 36 electrons in the shells. Because it is an inert gas in the family of helium, neon and argon, it does not participate in chemical reactions.
What chemical reaction produces the sun and energy?
These are not chemical reactions but thermonuclear reactions.
