Yes. The noble gasses are very stable because they have 8 valance electrons. They rarely react. However, oxygen only has 6 valance electrons, so it wants two more. It will most likely react with a group II metal to gain the 2 electrons.
Yes, chlorine is more reactive with oxygen than argon. Chlorine is a highly reactive element and readily forms compounds with oxygen, whereas argon is a noble gas and is chemically inert, meaning it does not readily react with other elements.
the carbon family. the noble gases never react
No, argon is not more reactive than oxygen. In fact, argon is a noble gas and is very non-reactive, while oxygen is a highly reactive element that readily participates in chemical reactions.
Because fluorine is having the most electronegativity and is the most reactive non metal.
Halogens are more chemically reactive compared to noble gases. Halogens have a high tendency to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, while noble gases already have a full outer electron shell and are therefore less likely to react with other elements.
All the neutral atoms (except noble gases) are more reactive. To gain stability, they form ions; therefore, ions are less reactive.
Noble gases are generally chemically inert, because they have completely filled valence orbitals. However, the nucleii of the heavier ones have a weaker electromagnetic 'hold' on the electrons of their outer shells. This means extremely powerful oxidising agents can react with the heavier noble gases, such as Platinum hexafluoride reacting with Xenon to form Xenon hexafluoroplatinate.
No, noble gases are not metals; they are a group of non-metal elements. Noble gases are the least reactive elements because they have a full valence shell of electrons, which makes them stable and unlikely to form chemical bonds with other elements. Alkali metals are the most reactive metals, while transition elements have varying reactivity levels depending on the element.
Halogens are highly reactive elements because they have seven valence electrons and are only one electron away from achieving a stable electron configuration like the noble gases. This electronic configuration makes halogens more likely to react with noble gases to gain that missing electron and achieve stability by forming compounds.
They are completely different Noble gases are colorless, monoatomic gases; the halogens are diatomic, colored and there form at room temperature is F, gas, Cl, gas, Br, liquid I, solid. Nobel gases are chemically unreactive, helium and neon have no known compounds, a few very reactive compounds are known for the rest. The halogens are all reactive, fluoringe is the most reactive. One or more of the halogens will form compounds with all of the other elements apart from the noble gases. (apart from He and Ne)
Yes, oxygen is more reactive than neon. Oxygen readily forms chemical compounds with other elements, whereas neon is a noble gas that is extremely stable and does not typically react with other elements.
No, oxygen is not the most reactive gas. On the periodic table, the reactivity of gases is symbolized in the periods, or horizontal rows, and the families, or vertical rows. Family number Eighteen is the inert gas family. Their reactivity is slight and even none at all. This means that the gases near the left side of the periodic table are more reactive.
