Best Answer

The electron configurations of all the elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons found in the outermost shell of an element.

Which group on the periodic table does not react with any other elements?

The noble gas family consisting of Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon have been considered as non-reactive and inert due to their stable configurations. But now compounds having Xenon and Krypton have been synthesized. So, it can be said that there is no such family on the periodic table which does not react with elements.

This electron is called excited.


Why are ions so stable?

Elements which are "metals" - meaning that they have excess electrons that can flow from atom to atom, and elements that are halogens, meaning that they lack only one electron to have a full electron shell, are both more stable as ions than as neutral elements.Sodium, for example, has one "extra" electron which is weakly bound; chlorine is a halogen which has space for one extra electron. Sodium Chloride will bind very well as "common table salt".Chemistry joke: Two Lithium atoms are walking down the sidewalk, and one trips and falls. The other atom asks, "Are you OK?"The atom that had fallen said "No, I've lost an electron!"The other atom asked "Are you sure?""Yes!" said that fallen atom. "I'm Positive!".


How are both stability and change seen in properties of elements?

Atoms with full octets form stable elements

What does the term abelian mean?

The term abelian is most commonly encountered in group theory, where it refers to a specific type of group known as an abelian group. An abelian group, simply put, is a commutative group, meaning that when the group operation is applied to two elements of the group, the order of the elements doesn't matter.For example:Let G be a group with multiplication * or addition +. If, for any two elements a, b Є G, a*b = b*a or a + b = b + a, then we call the group abelian.There are other uses of the term abelian in other fields of math, and most of the time, the idea of commutativity is involved.The term is named after the mathematician, Niels Abel.
