What else can I help you with?
Why are noble gases called rare gases?
Because they are chemically inert (or noble) due to the presence of completely filled orbitals.
Does noble gases react high or low?
Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals and are hence stable or chemically inert.
Why do noble gases have a stable electon configuration?
because they have completely filled orbitals
Why are noble gases put in the same group?
Because all noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals. Helium has 2 valence electrons whereas all other noble gases have 8 valence electrons.
Why are the noble gases unreative?
they have completely filled shells (or orbitals) and are hence stable and unreactive.
What is the relationship between the stable ions and the noble gases?
Generally (but not always) stable ions will have the same the electronic configuration as that of noble gases (completely filled valence shells / orbitals)
What is the common chemical property used to group the noble gases?
Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals.
What orbital are the noble gases found in?
The valence electrons are filled in the p orbitals for noble gases (s orbital for helium)
Why are noble gases called rare gases?
Because they are chemically inert (or noble) due to the presence of completely filled orbitals.
Does noble gases react high or low?
Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals and are hence stable or chemically inert.
How are the noble gases different from all the other gases in the periodic table?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals and are stable and chemically inert (non-reactive).
Why do the noble gases in group 8 not needed to react-they are happy?
Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals. Hence they are chemically inert.
What are characterisatics of noble gases?
Noble gases have completely filled valence orbitals. Helium has 2 valence electrons, whereas other noble gases have 8. They are generally chemically inert at STP.
Why do noble gases have a stable electon configuration?
because they have completely filled orbitals
What category is noble gases in?
Chemically inert Have completely filled valence orbitals
What gives noble gases the shared property of being highly unreactive?
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals, hence they are stable and chemically inert.
Why does helium belongs to noble gases where infact it has 2 valence electron?
Because helium has completely filled valence orbitals similar to other noble gases.
