no unpaired electrons in argon because argon is part of noble gases and noble gases are elements that unreactve under normal conditions they are inert as individual atom and do not form any compounds at all

How many electron pairs will Argon share?

This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.


When chlorine gains an electron to become a chloride ion with a -1 charge it ends up with the same electron arrangement as argon. Why doesn't it become an argon atom?

It doesn't become an argon atom because it (Cl-) still has 17 protons, and an argon atom has to have 18 protons.


Is argon an ion or atom?

Argon is an atom. It is a noble gas with a full outer electron shell, so it does not readily form ions.

How does potassium turn into argon?

Potassium-40 undergoes radioactive decay into argon-40. During this process, a potassium atom undergoes electron capture where a proton in the nucleus captures an inner-shell electron and is transformed into a neutron. The result is the transformation of a potassium atom into an argon atom by emitting an electron and an antineutrino.


What argon's atom size?

The atomic radius of an argon atom is about 188 picometers. Argon is a noble gas and is known for its inertness and stability due to its full outer electron shell.
