List of characteristics of gas?

Several characteristics of a gas are: chemical formula or composition, density, melting point, boiling point, flammability, toxicity, thermal conductivity, stability, reactivity, etc.


What discovery permitted the revision of the earlier periodic law?

The discovery of the noble gases (inert gases) in 1894 by Sir William Ramsay and Lord Rayleigh allowed for the revision of the earlier periodic law. These new elements did not fit into the previously established periodic table but found their place as a new group on the far right side.


What discovery element led to the addition of the group zero?

The discovery element that led to the addition of Group 0 (noble gases) was the realization that certain elements, such as helium, neon, and argon, were chemically inert and did not readily form compounds with other elements. This unique behavior distinguished them from previously known elements and necessitated the creation of a new group to accommodate them.


What elements share characteristics of neon?

Helium, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon are noble gases like neon. They are colorless, odorless, and have low reactivity. Neon is most similar to argon in terms of properties and behavior.


How did William Ramsay discovered the Noble gases?

William Ramsay discovered the noble gases by isolating and characterizing them in collaboration with Lord Rayleigh. They identified argon in 1894, followed by helium, neon, krypton, and xenon. Their work led to the discovery of a new group of inert gases that did not chemically react with other elements.

What are the characteristics of gases?

Gases are not restricted by gravity, so the molecules fly around, rather than stick together.

What are the characteristics of gases and vapors that are heavier than air?

They sink below the air.


any five characteristics of an gases?

5 properties of gases are: Gases have the lowest density of all the normal 3 states of matter. Gases have a random arrangement. Gases are the only normal state of matter to be compressed. Gases have the weakest atomic forces between particles. Gases, if stripped of their electrons, form plasmas.


Why do you think the noble gases were among the last of the natural occurring elements to be discovered?

Noble gases exist in nature in very low concentration and are very unreactive. These prevented their discovery earlier.
