Noble gases or inert gases have electron configurations that are very stable.
Helium 1s2
Neon [He] 2s2 2p6
Argon [Ne] 3s2 3p6
Krypton [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6
Xenon [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p6
Radon [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s2 6p6
Helium has a full energy shell, as does neon. The rest have partially filled outer shells but with the s2p6 configuration seen in neon (the "octet")
What this tells you is that He, Ne should be really stable but that the others may be persuaded form compounds, if you tried hard enough. Compounds of xenon were the first to be made in the 1960s, the xenon fluorides. Compounds for Krypton are known and very recently some really unstable compounds of Argon.
What else can I help you with?
Combined atoms form what?
Well, they can form molecules. Molecules join together to form elements. Elements join together to form compounds.
How do atoms and ions combine to form molecules?
Atoms combine to form molecules through chemical bonding, where they share or transfer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Ions, which are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, can also combine to form molecules by attracting to oppositely charged ions through ionic bonding.
What atoms form when they combine together?
When atoms combine, they form molecules. The type of molecule formed depends on the atoms involved and how they bond with each other. Bonding can occur through ionic bonds (transfer of electrons) or covalent bonds (sharing of electrons).
What is the relationship among atoms elements and molecules?
Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter, and they combine to form elements. Elements are composed of one type of atom and can be found on the periodic table. When atoms of different elements are chemically bonded together, they form molecules.
How does atoms combine to form molecules?
They can combine in lots of ways. Some reactive elements will combine on their own but others need heating to combine. Noble gases (krypton, argon, xenon, helium, neon and radon) do not react (combine) with other atoms.
What combine to form molecules?
atoms
What do atoms form when combine?
Molecules.
Combined atoms form what?
Well, they can form molecules. Molecules join together to form elements. Elements join together to form compounds.
Can molecules combine to form atoms?
No. Atoms bond to each other to form molecules, not the other way round
Are all atoms made up of molecules which may combine to form elements?
No. Molecules are made of atoms, not the other way around. Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds.
Why atoms join to form molecules?
atoms are generally unstable. they combine to form stable molecules
How do atoms and ions combine to form molecules?
Atoms combine to form molecules through chemical bonding, where they share or transfer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Ions, which are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, can also combine to form molecules by attracting to oppositely charged ions through ionic bonding.
What atoms form when they combine together?
When atoms combine, they form molecules. The type of molecule formed depends on the atoms involved and how they bond with each other. Bonding can occur through ionic bonds (transfer of electrons) or covalent bonds (sharing of electrons).
What can predict how atoms combine to form molecules?
periodic table..
Do molecules combine to make atoms?
No, atoms combine to form molecules. Molecules are made up of two or more atoms bonded together through chemical bonds. Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter and cannot be broken down into smaller particles, whereas molecules can be broken apart into their constituent atoms.
What type of reaction occurs when atom combine to form molecules or when molecules break down into atoms?
Chemical reactions occur when atoms combine to form molecules (synthesis reaction) or when molecules break down into atoms (decomposition reaction). These reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms to form new substances with different properties.
What is the relationship among atoms elements and molecules?
Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter, and they combine to form elements. Elements are composed of one type of atom and can be found on the periodic table. When atoms of different elements are chemically bonded together, they form molecules.
