It is non-reactive because it's shells are full. Argon has three electron shells. It's third shell is filled with eight electrons. That is why it does not easily combine with other elements.

What is made when hydrogen or oxygen and argon are combined?

You will get water and argon. Hydrogen an oxygen will readily and violently combine to form water. Argon is an inert gas, and so will not combine with other elements.


Can helium and argon combine and form a substance?

No. Both are noble gases and do not combine with each other


Which element can potassium not combine with?

Potassium can not combine with noble gases, such as helium, neon, and argon, as they are already stable and do not readily form compounds with other elements.


What happens if you combine boron and argon?

When boron and argon are combined, they do not react because argon is a stable noble gas and does not readily form compounds with other elements. They would simply exist as a mixture of boron and argon.


How does Argon combine with other elements?

it doesn't. it is inert gas.


Does argon combine with other elements?

it doesn't. it is inert gas.


Do halogens rarely combine with other elements?

No. Halogens combine readily with sodium


Why don't gases such as argon combine chemically with other elements?

Gases like argon are inert because they have stable electron configurations (full valence shells) that do not readily react with other elements to form compounds. Argon has a complete outer electron shell, making it unlikely to gain, lose, or share electrons with other elements.


Is Hydrogen more chemically active than Argon?

Yes, hydrogen has one electron and will readily bond with other elements. Argon is an inert gas which does not bond with other elements easily.


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)


Why argon and xenon do not easily combine with other elements?

What does argon combine with?

Argon typically does not combine with anything. It is an inert and noble gas.
