It compares to those of the nearest noble gases by adding electrons to those groups.

Hope it`s useful :)

In forming the molecule HF the F atom attains the electron configuration of?

Fluorine attains the electron configuration of neon (the nearest noble gas).


What do the Group IA atoms have to do to become a noble gas configuration?

They have one valence electron. If this electron is lost, the atoms form cations with the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas.


Why does hydrogen act like a group 17 element when forming covalent bonds?

Group 17 elements need one more electron to achieve the nearest noble gas electronic configuration. Hydrogen also needs one electron. Hence hydrogen behaves like a group 17 element when forming covalent bond.


What is the noble-gas configuration for lithium (Li)?

[He] 2s1


What is noble gas configurations?

"Noble gas configuration" means that in writing out an electron configuration for an atom, rather than writing out the occupation of each and every orbital specifically, you instead lump all of the core electrons together and designate it with the symbol of the corresponding noble gas on the periodic table (in brackets). For example, the noble gas configuration of phosphorus will be [Ne]3s23p3


What is the noble gas electron configuration for iodine whose atomic number is 53?

Iodine will gain one electron to form iodide anion which has the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas (xenon): [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p6 or 2, 8, 18, 18, 8.


What is the number of electrons that must be lost in li on the periodic table?

Lithium (Li) should lose 1 electron to get the configuration of the nearest noble gas (He).


Is sodium or argon more reactive and why?

Argon has completely filled valence orbitals and hence is unreactive. Sodium has one valence electron. If sodium loses this electron it will attain the stable electron configuration of the nearest noble gas (argon) and hence is reactive.


What are the similarities between the noble gases and alkali metals?

There are no similarities. Noble gases (group 18 elements) have completely filled orbitals with stable electron configuration and are generally unreactive. Alkali metals (group 1 elements) have one valence electron. They are reactive. When these lose one electron, they form ions which has the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas.


Is magnesium a positive or a negative ion?

Positive. It wants to lose two electrons to get to the electron configuration of its nearest noble gas, Ne (Neon).


What are 2 simmilarities between noble gases and alkali metals?

If alkali metals loses one electron, they achieve the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gases.
