The properties of the noble gases can be well explained by modern theories of atomic structure: their outer shell of valence electrons is considered to be "full", giving them little tendency to participate in chemical reactions, and only a few hundred noble gas compounds have been prepared. The melting and boiling points for each noble gas are close together, differing by less than 10 °C (18 °F); consequently, they are liquids over only a small temperature range.

Which group is non-reactive (inert)?

In chemistry the Inert Group are the Noble Gases. So called be cause they do not react with anything. The gases are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon.


What are the modern groups on the periodic table?

group 1a , group 2a , transition elements , group 0 (inert gases)


What are Zero group elements?

The Group 0 elements are called the noble gases. These are the six gases that are almost completely inert. Since they do not lose or gain any electrons, their valence is 0.


What periodic table group has elements that are all gases at stp?

Periodic Group 18(0) has all gaseous elements in it, commonly known as the noble, or inert gases.


Elements in group 18 are very unreactive they are said to be inert you call these the?

Group 18 (also known as group 0) element don't react much as they have a full outer shell of electrons. Some element in group 8 include: Helium, Neon, Argon and Krypton GROUP 18 IS ALSO KNOWN AS NOBLE GASES OR INERT GASES


What element doesn't have reaction with element or compound?

All elements in the Group 0 - Inert Gases group (exc. Radon) are highly unreactive and so don't react with nearly any substance. Inert Gases; Helium Neon Argon Krypton Xenon (Radon)


What are the elements of group 0 called?

Group 0 elements are generally known as the "noble gases". These include Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon (the whole right hand column). Noble Gases are usually unreactive too.


What are elements that rarely combine with other elements called?

The Inert Gases of Group 0 rarely combine with other elements as they are (exc. Radon) extremely unreactive. The Inert Gases are:HeliumNeonArgonKryptonXenon(Radon)


What element is unreactant?

All the elements in the Inert Gases family (exc. Radon) are highly unreactive. The Inert Gases family occupies Group 18(0) of the Periodic Table. They each have 8 electrons in the outer shell. The Inert Gases Group contains;HeliumNeonArgonKryptonXenonRADON


What do not actively combine with other elements?

The Group 0 - Inert Gases group are all (exc. Radon) highly unreactive, and so don't chemcially combine with other elements.


Which period contains the most elements that are all gases at STP?

The noble gases in Group 18 contain elements that are all gases at standard temperature and pressure (STP). Therefore, the period that contains the most elements that are all gases at STP is the third period.


Which of the elements in the periodic table are gases at STP?

Among the halogens, fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl) are gases at STP. In the new, IUPAC approved system, the halogens are placed in group 17. In the two (ambiguous) older systems, their group might be labelled VIIB or VIIA.
