Chemically, a neutral gas is one that is stable (meaning it has 8 valence electrons in its outer level already and does not need to react to achieve these 8 electrons). These gases are also called Noble gases. Helium is considered a neutral gas because it only has one energy level and can only hold 2 electrons (Remember that the goal of elements is to achieve stability, which is why they react. An element is stable when it has 8 electrons in the outer level).

What is a neutral group of atoms joined by one or more covalent bonds?
The only group of neutral elements is the noble gases. They are in group 0. They are electronically stable elements that do not tend to react. They exist as single molecules.
Is nitric oxide an neutral oxide?
No, nitric oxide is acidicNitric oxide is actually neutral.And for future reference, the other NOx gases are:= Nitrogen dioxide (N2O), acidic.= Dinitrogen monoxide (N2O), neutral (but later reacts with oxygen, forming NO2 which is acidic).
Can rwo different gases mix themself up?
Is that meant to be two? and it by clashing together and the force of pull brings them together also
Do gases contain unbalanced numbers of electrons and protons?
Neutral gases do not; ionized gases do.
Is carbon monoxide a basic oxide?
Nope, it is a neutral gas! all mono oxide gases are neutral..!
What is meant by atmosphere?

Describe what is meant by the term neutral spine?
The neutral spine refer to the natural position of the spine when the parts of the body are in good alignment.
What is meant by a solution the is neutral?
This means that the solution is neither acidic nor basic
Why are gases then there a little?
The question is too ambiguous to answer. When is then? Where is there? and what is meant b too little. There are huge amounts of gases in the sun, and other stars, for example.
