How are elements indentified on the periodic table?

Elements in the table are identified by different things. What they are made of, atomic mass, and atomic number. Elements can also be identified by what state of matter they are at zero degrees Celsius and standard pressure which 1atm. The most current, standard table has 117 different elements.


Which element have zero valency?

Noble gases were considered elements with zero valency; but today a significant number of noble gases (especially xenon) are known.


What is argons group?

Atomic number of argon is 18, and it belongs to group 18 , a group of noble gases , it has 8 electrons in the outermost orbit and therefore a zero valancy.


What are Zero group elements?

The Group 0 elements are called the noble gases. These are the six gases that are almost completely inert. Since they do not lose or gain any electrons, their valence is 0.


Which atom has atomic number zero and mass number zero?

No sense; atomic number zero and atomic weight zero doesn't exist ! Edit: !Answer = 0


Can elements in the middle of the periodic table bond with other elements?

All the elements except elements belonging to zero group (He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe which are inert in nature) can bond with other elements.


Why is the group consisting of noble gases labeled as zero group?

They were once labeled group 0 in the periodic table because it was believed they had a valence of zero, meaning their atoms cannot combine with those of other elements to form compounds.


What element has the lower atomic number of any group?

Trick question? Lowest group is 1? There is no zero. If it's not a trick question then it's Hydrogen.


Why elements of group 18 are zero valent?

because they have completely filled orbitals (or shells). hence generally are inert


Is Family of noble gases named as zero-group?

They were once labeled group 0 in the periodic table because it was believed they had a valency of zero, meaning their atoms cannot combine with those of other elements to form compounds.


What group of element is the most unreactive?

Zero group elements are least reactive. Its The Noble Gas Family which is helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and the radioactive radon (Rn).
