Since argon is the last element in its period, it is a noble gas. This means that it has a full outer shell of electrons (specifically a full p orbital), and is not very reactive (at all).

Argon is the last element in the period.What does this tell you in about argon?
Argon, like all of the "noble" gases, has a full electron shell.
How can you tell silicon is in period 3?
periods move from left to right find the element you are looking for and move all the way to the left if it is the third element down it is in period 3
The period of an element can be determined by what?
The total number of electron shells in an atom has determines its period grouping.
What does the period number tell us about an element?
The period tells us 3 things: # As you go from left to right across each period, the number of protons in the nucleus increases # As you go from left to right across each period, the reactivity of each element decreases (E.g. Sodium is very reactive but argon is very stable as it is a noble gas) ∴ tells us about the reactivity # It tells us the number of shells there are for each element (E.g. Magnesium has 3 shells [2.8.2], ∴it is in the 3rd period)
What does the periodic table tell you about the element in a group?
The groups in the periodic table tell you what each element within them will react with, the number of valance electrons the element has, and what family it is in.
Argon is the last element in the period.What does this tell you in about argon?
Argon, like all of the "noble" gases, has a full electron shell.
How do you tell the heaviest element of a period?
To the right!
What does the period number tell about an element?
its tell you the atomics mass that occurs
How can you tell silicon is in period 3?
periods move from left to right find the element you are looking for and move all the way to the left if it is the third element down it is in period 3
What does every element in the first period have?
i dont know i was waiting for u to tell me.....
Can you tell which element represent by Hf?
an element of period 6 name has hafnium having atomic no 72 and atomic mass as 178.49
What does carbons group number tells you about the element?
Tells you where this element resides in the period table. tell you which group,,metallic , gas, or liquid.
Why is argon important in the atmosphere?
You tell me.
What does the period number tell us about the element?
For elements it's the atomic number not the "Period Number." This number tells you how many protons a single atom of that element has in its nucleus. The "period number" is a dimensionless quantity used in fluid dynamics.
Im pregnant but i don't know when my last period was i know i didn't have one in october what should i tell my doctor i have my first appointment on Thursday?
tell your doctor you don't remember when your last period was.
The period of an element can be determined by what?
The total number of electron shells in an atom has determines its period grouping.
What does the number of nucleus tell you about the element?
The number of the protons in the nucleus of a chemical element is equivalent to the atomic number; the atomic number define the position of this element in the periodic table (group, period). And from these we can suppose the chemical properties of this element.
