What are disadvantages of argon?

One disadvantage of argon is that it is relatively expensive compared to other gases. Another disadvantage is that it can displace oxygen in a closed environment, which can be dangerous for humans. Argon also has limited reactivity and is not suitable for some welding applications that require a reactive gas.

An atom of argon rarely bonds to an atom of another element because an argon atom has what?

Atoms of argon have a full outer (valence) shell, and this is why argon is inert. The electrons of an atom have different energy levels. It's conventional to call each collection of possible states of electrons for a given energy level a shell. Shells have finite capacity and argon has a full outer shell. Chemical reactions tend to rely on electrons jumping from one atom to another or two sharing the orbit of 2 electrons (a type of shell around 2 electrons if you like). If the shells are full it is usually more energy efficient for an electron to stay put rather than jump to another atom. consequently argon with its full shells rarely bonds.


Why did henry want to deveroce catherne of argon?

Deveroce is probably too strong a term regarding their relationship. In a milder term, such as blood-let, Henry probably found Catherne of Argon stealing oil from her company. I'm guessing Henry was her boss, or maybe a jealous lover who couldn't let his affair get in the way of advancing his career. She probably got in the way when she took oil from Argon. This is probably the truth.
