Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. 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.
Yes, chlorine is more reactive with oxygen than argon. Chlorine is a highly reactive element and readily forms compounds with oxygen, whereas argon is a noble gas and is chemically inert, meaning it does not readily react with other elements.
Oxygen and chlorine would be the most chemically reactive gases due to their high electronegativity and tendency to gain or share electrons with other elements. Argon and neon, being noble gases, are already stable and do not readily react with other elements.
Generally, the least reactive elements are the noble gases.
Neon, Helium, and argon
Yes. It is the first of the noble gases, or group 18.
Among neon, argon, and helium, neon is the most reactive because it tends to form compounds with other elements under extreme conditions. Helium and argon are noble gases and are generally unreactive due to their stable electronic configurations.
The other noble gases.
Noble gases are the least reactive elements in the periodic table because they have a full valence shell.The least reactive elements in the periodic table are the noble gases or sometimes the inert gases. These are the elements of Group 18, and they have full valence shells. They are not interested in loaning out or borrowning electrons, and are very stable.The gases helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon make up the inert gases. Wikipedia has a nice post on these interesting elements, and a link is provided.
Most elements are non reactive to noble gases.
Group 18 is the noble gases, the last group on the periodic table. The elements are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon. These elements have a full outer shell and are virtually nonreactive.
Hydrogen is the most chemically reactive among the elements listed. It readily reacts with other elements to form compounds, while helium, argon, and neon are inert gases and generally do not undergo chemical reactions under normal conditions.
The noble gases are the elements in Group 18 of the periodic table. These are the inert gases, and they include helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon. The chemical symbols for these elements are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Ra, respectively.
