What else can I help you with?
Does noble gases have less stable electronic configurations than others?
No. Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration.
Do noble gases have less stable electronic configurations than all other elements in the periodic table?
no
Noble gases have less stable electronic configurations then all other elements in the periodic table?
Noble gases actually have the most stable electronic configurations in the periodic table due to having a full outer shell of electrons. This full octet makes them less likely to react with other elements, earning them the name "noble gases."
What have stable electron configurations?
any time there are as many electrons and protons and they fill each orbital optimally.
Noble gases have less stable electronic configurations that all other elements on the periodic table?
No, Noble Gases have the stabliest configuration on the periodic table because they follow the octete rule by having eight electrons. They can be found on the far right column.
What is the relationship between the stable ions and the noble gases?
Generally (but not always) stable ions will have the same the electronic configuration as that of noble gases (completely filled valence shells / orbitals)
What do the noble gases have in commmon?
All noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals. Helium has 2 valence electrons, the others have 8. They are stable configurations and as such noble gases are generally chemically inert at standard temperature and pressure.
What do the electron configurations for all the group 18 noble gases have in common?
All group 18 noble gases have a completely filled outer electron shell, which gives them stability and inertness. Their electron configurations end in s2p6, meaning they have a full s orbital and a full p orbital in their outermost shell.
How do electron configurations of noble gases give them high unreactivity?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals, are stable and chemically inert (non-reactive). So generally they will not form compounds.
Why are noble gases monotomic?
Noble gases have completely filled outer most shell and have stable electronic configuration. They are chemically inert and exist as monoatomic species.
Do noble gases occur in diatomic form?
No. Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals, have stable electronic configuration. Hence they exist as monoatomic species.
What does not react with chlorine?
Elements like noble gases (e.g. helium, neon, argon) do not react with chlorine due to their stable electronic configurations. Additionally, elements like gold and platinum are also unreactive with chlorine.
