Noble gases do not naturally form chemical bonds because their valence orbital is full of electrons. Helium has 2 electrons, and the other noble gases have 8 electrons in their full valence orbital. This full shell makes them unreactive (they have high ionization energy and almost zero electron affinity). However, under special conditions in the lab, scientists can artificially synthesize noble gas compounds such as XeF6.

Is Argon and Neon a covalent or ionic bond?

They are neither. Neon and Argon are nobel gases, which means they don't normally bond at all, for they have a full outter electron shell.


Can calcium bond with argon?

No, calcium and argon cannot form a chemical bond with each other because argon is a noble gas and does not typically form chemical bonds. Calcium is a reactive metal that tends to form ionic bonds with nonmetals, but it does not form bonds with noble gases like argon.


What type of bond is Ne?

Ne is the chemical symbol for the element neon. It is not a type of bond. In fact, neon is a noble gas and as such does not typically form bonds with other atoms.


An atom will not normally form a chemical bond if it has how many valence electrons?

An atom will not normally form a chemical bond if it has 8 electrons already or in the case of hydrogen and helium, 2 electrons. A "full" valence shell has 8 electrons starting and period 2 on the periodic table. The elements with full valence levels are the elements on the far right family called the noble gases. The noble gases are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and radon (Rn).


What makes a molecule?

Two atoms or more make a molecule. Normally, the atoms are bonded in a covalent bond or some other chemical bond.


What elements have complete outer energy levels and will bond with any other element?

Elements with complete outer energy levels are noble, which means that they will not bond with other elements. They are not (normally) reactive.


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.
