An inert gas is one that won't react with other gases. You can store inert gases with any other gases - oxygen (an oxidizing gas) and argon (an inert gas) are commonly stored together in industrial settings.

∙ 9y agoYes, inert gases can be stored with oxidizing and reactive gases. Inert gases do not react with other gases or with liquids. Inert gases may be used to blanket tanks of reactive liquids.

What is another word for chemically nonreactive?
inert as in the inert gases or "noble" gases
Why are the elements helium argon and neon called inert gases?
As we all know that noble gases are also called INERT GASES, so the subgroup VIII of GROUP 'A' contains only noble gases and inert gases so helium and neon are also in VIII-A so they are inert gases.
Why do inert gases react with fluorine and oxygen gases?
Inert means non-reactive. Inert gases do not react with fluorine and oxygen except under exceptional conditions that do not occure naturally on the Earth.
In what group does Ne belong?
noble gases, inert gases
Is Gold chemically active or inert?
Gold is active, or at least not inert. Only the noble gases are inert.
Can you store Nitrogen and argon?
Inert gases are compatible with all other gases and may be stored together.
The noble gases are inert This means they?
inert means they are not reactive gases. (:
What are inert gases?
Inert gases are the noble gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn). They used to be called the inert gases until Neil Bartlett proved that you could make compounds out of some of them, so they were renamed "inert" gases.
What is the percentage of inert gases in atmosphere?
there is 1.25 percent of inert gases in the atmosphere
What is the percentage of inert gases the atmosphere?
there is 1.25 percent of inert gases in the atmosphere
What is another word for chemically nonreactive?

The inert gases can also be called what?
Inert gases can also be called noble gases. An example is Helium.
Is neon a part of the noble gases family or the inert gases family?
Yes. Neon is a part of noble gases (or inert gases)
What are some other names for Noble gases?
Another name for noble gases is inert gases.
Why are the elements helium argon and neon called inert gases?
As we all know that noble gases are also called INERT GASES, so the subgroup VIII of GROUP 'A' contains only noble gases and inert gases so helium and neon are also in VIII-A so they are inert gases.
Are halogens inert gases?
No. halogens are not inert gases. Halogens are group 17 elements. Inert gases or noble gases are the group 18 elements Helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn) are the six inert gases.
Rare or inert gases are more commonly know as what?
The rare or inert gases are more commonly known as the noble gases.
