Which noble gas has the lowest ionization energy?
Among the noble gases, radon has the largest size and hence will have the lowest ionisation energy
Explain why the noble gases have high ionization energies?
Noble gases have filled shells, which is the most stable configuration for an atom. Removing an electron from a noble gas would increase the energy more than if you removed an electron from, for example, nitrogen.
What element is a noble gas in the first energy level?
There are no noble gases in the first energy level. Noble gases are found in the last (highest) energy level of an atom. The first energy level can only hold a maximum of 2 electrons, while the noble gases have completely filled outermost energy levels.
Do noble gases have the maximum number of electrons in their outer energy level?
Yes, the outermost energy level of the atoms of the noble gases are filled, meaning that they have the maximum number of electrons. This is why noble gases are stable and unreactive. The atoms of reactive elements share or transfer electrons in order to fill their outermost energy levels, making them stable like the noble gases.
Why are the noble gases not included in the trend in ionization energy?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals are are stable. they do not donate electrons and hence are not included in ionization energy trend.
Are noble gases outer energy levels to full to combine with other elements?
Yes they have full energy levels,this makes them stable.They are highly unreactive, to add on that ionisation is very high in noble gases.

What Gases with full outer energy levels?

Has largerst ionization energy in its period?
Ionisation energies GENERALLY increase across a period. As a result, the noble elements (i.e. Group 0 elements) usually have the highest ionisation energies, as they are highly stable.
What is the outer shell of the noble gases called?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2 valence electrons) and have stable electronic configuration.
Which elements has the highest ionisation energy?
Helium has the greatest ionization energy. Its electron is being removed from the principal shell closest to the nucleus. It has a greater I.E. than hydrogen does because the electron is being pulled away from a greater nuclear charge.
Which group requires the highest ionization energy?
noble gases
How many electrons in the outermost energy level of noble gases?
8
