True or false noble gases are inert gasses?
Noble gasses are historically known as inert gasses - so true
What is true about the electron configuration of noble gases?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and obey octet rule (stable electronic configuration). Hence they are chemically inert (or do not react with other elements).
Noble gases are inert gases true or false?
TRUE (apex)
Metals tend to gain electrons to attain the electron configuration of noble gases?
true, just not for Boron witch tries to gain 6 electrons for a stable arrangement
Which ion has a pseudo-noble-gas electron configuration?
The pseudo noble-gas electron configuration has the outer three orbitals filled, the s, p and d- s2p6d10 (18 electrons total) and so is fairly stable. Elements that attain this electron configuration are at the right side of the transition metals (d-block). Br-, I-, Se2-

Why group 17 elements are strong non metals while group 1 elements are strong metals?
All elements tend to react with other elements so as to attain a noble gas electronic configuration in their ions, because such a configuration usually has the lowest energy for a particular atom or ion, other factors being equal. The drive to form such an ion is strongest when the electron configuration of an elemental atom differs from the closest noble gas configuration by only one electron, and this criterion is true for both group and group 17 elements: Group 1 elements can attain a noble gas electron configuration by donating one electron to another atom, and Group 17 elements can attain a noble gas configuration by accepting one electron, thereby filling their valence shell.

Does KR and AR have the same valence electron configuration?
Krypton and argon both have 8 valence electrons. This is true of all noble gases except helium, which has only 2 valence electrons.
What is true of electron configurations of the noble gases?
They all have a full set of valence electrons.
What is true about the electron configurations of the noble gases Decent levels are partially filled be the electrons with the highest energy you sublevel see the highest occupied SN?
The valence electron shell of noble gases is full.
Is true about the electron configurations of the noble gases?
the elections with the highest energy are in an f sub level. your welcome :))
True or False Elements of the halogen family lose one electron to become halide ions?
false; it reacts so that they acquire the electron structure of a noble gas.
Why is the noble gases the most unreactive?
Because the outer electron shell is full as is the case with helium and neon or because it has the stable octet configuration, with 8 electrons, which is true for the rest, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.
