Nonmetals that do not react naturally with other elements are inert. These nonmetals are called the noble gases and are in Group 18 (VIIIA) on the Periodic Table.
What else can I help you with?
What elements do nonmetals react with?
Nonmetals may react with metal to form ionic compounds (salts) or other nonmetal elements to form organic compounds.
What other elements conmbine with plutonium?
Plutonium can react with the majority of the nonmetals.
What elements do nonmetals react to?
Nonmetals commonly react with metals to form ionic compounds. Nonmetals can also react with other nonmetals to form covalent compounds. Additionally, nonmetals can react with oxygen, hydrogen, and halogens to form various types of compounds.
What happens to the atoms of most nonmetals when the react with other elements?
Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.
What happens to the atoms most nonmetals when they react with other elements?
Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.
What are examples of active nonmetals?
Examples of active nonmetals include oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, and bromine. These elements readily form compounds and react with other elements to gain electrons.
When nonmetals react with other nonmetals the atoms of nonmetals do what with electrons?

What does not react naturally with elements?
The noble gases: Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon, all the gases in that chemical group or family. The noble gases do not usually form compounds, except under extreme conditions: high heat and pressure, and then only in the presence of a catalyst, such a platinum [Pt] or nickel [Ni].
What happens to atoms of most nonmetals when they react with other elements?
They tend to gain electrons when reacting with a metal. Metals generally are short of a full octet by 1 to 4 valence electrons. It is easier to drop 2 electrons than try to gain 6 electrons. The elements in group four can go either way, but the other metals will give up electrons, and non-metals will take them.
When nonmetals react with other nonmetal the atoms of the nonmetals?
The nonmetals share the atoms when reacting with each other.
What elements react with metals?
Elements from the boron, carbon, pnictogen, chalcogen and halogen families (groups 13 to 17) react with metals.
What happens to the atoms of most nonmetals when they react with other element's?
Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.
