When atomic radius continue to decrease why do the atoms of noble gases don't react easily with other atoms?
noble gasses have a full outer shell of 8 electrons which makes them fairly stable as they have no more room in that shell for another electron nor do they have the need to share there electrons with another element to gain a full outer shell
Do noble gasses have the maximum number of electrons in their outer energy level?
yes.they have the maximum number of electrons in their outer energy level?
How many electrons does it take to fill the outer shell to become like a noble gas?
For most elements, a complete outer shell, like that of a noble gas, has eight electrons. There are exceptions. Helium, which is the most noble of the noble gases, has only two electrons in its outer shell. A few other light elements only need two (and hydrogen can also exist with no electrons at all, in the form of a naked proton, which is also a form of completion for the outer shell).
How many electrons does noble gases have in the outer shell?
8 electrons (except for helium which has 2)
Which noble gas can bond?
No noble gas will bond in an unexcited state. All noble gases have a complete outer valence shell consisting of eight electrons. (Helium excluded- whose outer electron shell is completed with two electrons)
How can elements acquire a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Atoms will gain, lose, or share electrons to match the number of outer shell electrons of a noble gas.
What is similar about the atomic structure of elements in the same family?
The atomic structure of elements in the same family are similar in that all have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell. For example, the Noble Gases all have 8 electrons in their outer shell.
How many electrons would the atomic structure of Tin have on its outer shell?
There are four electrons found on the outer shell of a atomic structure of tin. They are in a group of four.
What is the noble gases structure?
8 outer electrons s2p6

Why do noble gases not normally form compounds?
Noble gases have a full outer shell, meaning that they have no valence electrons and have 8 electrons in their outer shell. If the outer shell is full they do not need electrons, so they would not want to bond with another element to form a compound.
How many electrons does noble gases have in the outer shell?
8 electrons (except for helium which has 2)
What element is the only noble gas that does not have eight electrons in its outer shell?
it is helium He. it has 2 electrons
Which noble gas can bond?
No noble gas will bond in an unexcited state. All noble gases have a complete outer valence shell consisting of eight electrons. (Helium excluded- whose outer electron shell is completed with two electrons)
Lewis dot diagram for helium?
He :The number of electrons in an atom's outer electron shell determines how many dots there are. Helium has 2 electrons in its outer electron shell, so 2 dots.
