Which elements on the periodic table have stable electron configurations?

Answer 1

All of them. There is no problem with elements not having stable electron configurations. The only stability issue concerns the nucleus, not the electrons-- all elements except helium have isotopes with unstable nuclei, some have only unstable nuclei (radioactive elements), and some have only very short-lived unstable nuclei.

Answer 2

In the Periodic Table, the far right hand column is made up of what is called the "inert gases". Inert means unreactive, which is exactly why they're called that. They aren't reactive at all and only naturally occur by themselves, not joined to any other element. As you go along the periodic table, each element has one more electron that the last, and so when you get to the inert gases, the way electrons are configured in shells, each inert gas has a full outer shell and no spare electrons. This is why they're the group that is at a stable energy level and won' react.

Answer 3

Elements with full valence electron shells, such as the noble gases in Group 18 of the periodic table (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon), have stable electron configurations. Additionally, elements with full or half-full d or f orbitals also tend to have more stable electron configurations.

Answer 4

no one knows anything anymore why do they do these stupid websites if they dont help

Answer 5

Group VIIIA in the periodic table commonly used in the US. The current naming convention uses the term group 18. These are the noble gasses (e.g. Helium, Neon and Argon)

Answer 6

The noble gases in the far right column.

Answer 7

The Noble gases which is Group 18

Answer 8

helium, xenon, neon

Answer 9

Noble Gases
