What is neon-20 and neon-22 called?

Neon-20 is used for the same things as any other natural isotopes of neon. E.G. it is used to make neon lights and helium-neon lasers. Neon-20 isotopic concentration may be important for some geological or volcanlogic studies.


Is neon an element compound or mixture?

Neon certainly is an element. Every atom in neon has the same number of protons in its nucleus, namely 10, and every other atom in the universe has either more or fewer protons in its nucleus, which is what it means to be an element. That is what it means to be an element; you have the same particular number of protons in every single atom . Like Helium, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon, Neon is what we call a noble gas which means that it need not be able to form compounds at all, and unlike Krypton, Xenon, and Radon, but like Helium and Argon, it does indeed not form any compounds at all. It can of course form mixtures, such as if you mix it with other gases, including the other noble gases, but neon by itself is of course not mixed, or it would not be neon. Therefore, yes, neon is an element, not a mixture, and not a compound. If this was a homework question, I hope you will be able to answer it for yourself in future. What is more important, I really, really hope you will know what you are talking about when you do!


Your element belongs to the family?

On the peroidic table of elements, the family tells you a brief overview of what kind of element it is. It could be a metal, or gas, and it usually describes what kind of metal (transition) or what kind of gas (noble).


What does potassium have to do to achieve the same electron arrangement as neon?

To achieve the same electron arrangement as neon, potassium would need to lose one electron, since neon has a full valence shell with 8 electrons. This would leave potassium with a stable electron configuration similar to neon.


How many protons does the element neon have?

10 Protons 10 Neutrons in the most common isotope.

Is neon a synthetic element?

Neon is an element not a compound coz a compound is two elements or more chemically joinning together an element is simple substance that cant be broken down and neon is an element on the periodic table.... An element, it is in the noble gases column, meaning that it is a very unreactive, monatomic gas. It has a full outer shell and has little desire to react . Its chemical symbol is NE. It's atomic number is 10, and mass no. 20. It's relative atomic mass is 20.18. It's electron configuration is 2.8
