Noble gases are the gases in the rightmost column of the Periodic Table that have a full outer energy level. This is why the noble gases do not react with other elements readily. When an atom has a full outer energy level, it means that it has the maximum number of electrons in these outer shells, making it stable.

A verticle column in the periodic table?

In the Periodic Table of the Elements, a column (group) contains all elements that exist with the group number of electrons in the outer energy level of an atom of that element.


What do you notice about the number of enery level or shells as you move down a group or column in the periodic table?

As you move down a group or column in the periodic table, the number of energy levels or shells increases. Each row in the periodic table represents a different energy level, with elements in the same row having the same number of electron shells.


What makes the atomic radius down a column of the periodic table?

The larger the highest energy level, the larger the atomic radius.


What is a group on the periodic table?

A group on the periodic table is a vertical column of elements that share similar chemical properties and have the same number of electrons in their outermost energy level.


What makes the atom radius change down a column of the periodic table?

The larger the highest energy level, the larger the atomic radius.


Which column on the periodic table contains elements with completely filled outer energy levels?

The column on the periodic table that contains elements with completely filled outer energy levels is the noble gases column (group 18 or Group 8A). These elements have a full outermost energy level, making them stable and less likely to form bonds with other elements.


What makes the atomic radius change down Column of the periodic table?

the larger the highest energy level number, the larger the atomic radius (Apex)


Which group is in the leftmost column of the periodic table?

Noble gases are the gases in the rightmost column of the periodic table that have a full outer energy level. This is why the noble gases do not react with other elements readily. When an atom has a full outer energy level, it means that it has the maximum number of electrons in these outer shells, making it stable.


Elements are placed in the same column of the periodic table because their outer electrons are in the same energy level?

Yes, they're called shells (according to the simpler atom model; the adjective 'outer' is referring to that) or orbitals (quantum energy model, cf. the term 'energy level').


What is an atom's group?

An atom's "group" is its column position in the Periodic Table of the Elements. Elements in the same group in the periodic table have similar chemical properties. This is because their atoms have the same number of electrons in the highest occupied energy level.


What is a colunm in the periodic table?

A column in the periodic table is called a group or a family. Elements within the same group share similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons. There are 18 groups in the periodic table.


When you go down a column on the periodic table how does the atomic size go?

As you go down a column on the periodic table, the atomic size increases. This is because each subsequent element in the column has an additional energy level of electrons, leading to increased distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, resulting in larger atomic size.
