The element Krypton's name derived from the Greek term, Kryptos, meaning hidden/secret/covered. Krypton is a noble gas, meaning it does not usually react to other gasses. It is atomic number 36. Krypton is associated with lights. It is commonly used in fluorescent lights and sometimes neon lights. Less than 1% of the atmosphere is made up of krypton gas.
Fun Fact: Krypton is a planet from SUPERMAN:)

Krypton is isolated from liquified air by a process called fractional distillation.
The horizontal rows are called periods. Krypton (atomic number 36) is the last element in the period 4.
There is an element called Krypton, it has nothing to do with superheros from another planet.
No, Since Krypton is a noble gas, it forms very few compounds and none with metals
yes it reacts and combines with a halogen called fluorine and can also make calthrates
