There are six noble gases: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon. Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.

What group is stable and will not bond?

Noble Gases are stable due to the "octet" rule (they have as many electrons as they can hold) and will not bond.


What type of bond is unique to proteins?

Peptide bonds are the type of bond that is unique to proteins. Peptide bonds form between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid during protein synthesis.


Which group on the periodic table is a noble gas most likely to bond with?

Noble gases (Group 18) are generally unreactive due to their full outer electron shells. They typically do not bond with other elements, as they are stable and satisfied with their electron configuration.


What elements easily bond with Xenon?

I don't think any element can easily , or even bond with Xenon. Xenon is a noble gas with enough electrons on the outermost shell, therefore it exist alone like other noble gas such as helium, argon in the same group: Group 0.


Which group on the periodic table does not combine with other elements?

The group that doesn't combine is the Noble Gasses. They have full valence shells, so they don't need to bond with other atoms.


Why does potassium and helium Not make an ionic bond?

Potassium and helium do not form an ionic bond because they belong to different groups on the periodic table. Potassium is a metal in group 1, while helium is a noble gas in group 18. Due to their large difference in electronegativity and stability, they are unlikely to transfer electrons to form an ionic bond.


Which group would Group 18 elements want to bond with?

The group 18 elements are the noble gases, which are extremely inert. Some of them, heavier than argon, do form highly reactive compounds principally with fluorine.


What does VIII mean on the periodic table?

VIII on the periodic table represents Group 8, also known as the noble gases. This group includes elements such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. Noble gases are known for their stable properties and reluctance to bond with other elements.


Which group on the periodic table never forms a chemical bond?

Group 18 (noble gases), because there outer energy level is full


What region on the periodic table has atoms that rarely if ever chemically bond?

Noble Gases: Because Noble Gases are already in a stable form, they are not as likely to bond with other atoms as are those farther from a stable form. Noble Gases are found in group VIII, which is the far rightmost column.


What element has the least similar properties to nitrogen?

Of the elements, helium has the least similar properties to nitrogen. Helium is a noble gas found in Group 18 of the periodic table and is colorless, odorless, and non-reactive. In contrast, nitrogen is a non-metal found in Group 15 and can form various compounds due to its ability to bond with other elements.


What is electronegativity of argon?

Argon is a noble gas and does not have a defined electronegativity value since it does not typically form chemical bonds. Electronegativity is a measure of an element's ability to attract electrons in a chemical bond, which is not relevant for noble gases like argon.
