Elements in group 18 are very nonreactive .They are said to be inert.We call these the?
Bankhead2
The Inert or "Noble" gasses.
Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon are the inert gasses.
The "inert" gas Radon is chemically inert, but is radioactive. Radon has a half-life of four days. Because of its radioactivity, radon is hazardous when concentrated. Where the soil contains trace amounts of radium, thorium and uranium, basements may tend to harbor unsafe concentrations of Radon gas; the radioactivity being breathed into the lungs increased the risk of lung cancer. Inexpensive radon detectors can let you know if your basement gathers radon. If so, a ventilation fan to prevent the heavy radon from accumulating might be advisable.

What are all the element that in group 6 call?
All the elements in group 6 are called the transition metals. This is also true for groups 3-12.
Which elements have one valence electron?
In addition to hydrogen, all elements in Group I of the periodic table have one valence electron. They are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The farther you move right on the periodic table the more valence electrons. For example, elements in Group VII have 8 valence electrons except helium.
What do you call the elements or molecules that go into a reactions?
You might mean reactants.
What is the family name for tin in the periodic table?
Tin is a metal, and is actually part of the group of metals we call the poor metals. These elements include, aluminum (or aluminium), gallium, indium, thallium, tin, lead and bismuth.The official name for this family is the 'Carbon' family.
Why don't elements in group 18 usually form chemical bonds?
group 18 elements are what we call noble gasses. This means that their most outer shell called the valence shell has all 8 electrons. The reason why other elements are reactive is because all elements want to have a full valence shell because it makes them more stable. The noble gasses have a full shell so they are not very reactive.
What do you call a nonreactive element?
Stable.
What do we call the group 1 elements?
The Alkali Metals
What do you call the table used to group atoms?
The Periodic Table of Elements
What is call metal?
A group of elements in the periodic table is called metals.
What is the family that contains very reactive elements such as F Cl BR I?
We call them halogens.they are in the 17th group.
What do you call the atoms in family 1?
The elements (not atoms) in family 1 (group I) are called alkali metals.
What are all the element that in group 6 call?
All the elements in group 6 are called the transition metals. This is also true for groups 3-12.
Is it appropriate to refer to group viii elements as inert gases?
As long as you're referring to the rightmost group (starting with Helium) then yes, they are referred to as Noble/Inert gases.Note: Many scientists will call it group 18 instead of group 8.
What does the term abelian mean?
The term abelian is most commonly encountered in group theory, where it refers to a specific type of group known as an abelian group. An abelian group, simply put, is a commutative group, meaning that when the group operation is applied to two elements of the group, the order of the elements doesn't matter.For example:Let G be a group with multiplication * or addition +. If, for any two elements a, b Є G, a*b = b*a or a + b = b + a, then we call the group abelian.There are other uses of the term abelian in other fields of math, and most of the time, the idea of commutativity is involved.The term is named after the mathematician, Niels Abel.
