Is krypton a metal?
Krypton is a gas, one of the noble or intert gases.
What is the inert gas that's lighter than air?
There are two problems with this question, one is that inert gas is more than one substance and the second is that so is air. Air is a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, argon and other gases. The best way to determine its mass is to take an average between these components. Next, what's an inert gas? Strictly speaking, the inert gases are the noble gases, which are the elements in group 0 of the periodic table. They are helium, neon, krypton, radon, xenon and argon. Hang on..., isn't argon in air? Helium is the lightest inert gas and as anyone who has seen a helium balloon can testify, it is lighter than air. The further down group 0 you go, towards the likes of xenon and radon, the heavier they get. From krypton onwards, they are all heavier than air except.... ... except that all of the noble gases, or the inert gases, can be found in air, in very small amounts. So in a weird way, if you're asking if inert gases are heavier than air, you're asking if they're heavier than themselves. But to put it in the simplest terms, there is more than one inert gas. Helium can be considered an example of an inert gas that is lighter than air, whereas xenon can be considered an example of one that is heavier.
Is krypton corrosive?
Yes Krypton can be oxidized by using Fluorine, to produce Krypton(II) Fluoride [KrF2]. The Proton bombardment process is a fast method for a relatively large amount of this. A mixture of Kr and F2 is bombarded with proton beam, to produce KrF2
Radon is the most heaviest naturally radioactive what?
Radon is one of the noble (inert gases), is radioactive (half-life of about 4 days, decaying to polonium), and is naturally occurring in relatively small quantities. Whether or not it is the heaviest of this group, I am not sure...perhaps someone else can verify.
Is an inert gas and has one more proton than hydrogen?
The gas is helium. Helium is inert and has 2 protons, while hydrogen has 1 proton.
What are krypton's properties?
Krypton is an inert gas, which does not engage in chemical reactions; it is also one of the heavier inert (or noble) gases. Other than that, it is colorless, odorless, and very inconspicuous. It was actually quite hard for chemists even to find it, hence the name krypton, meaning hidden.
What is krypton at room temperature?
Krypton is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas at room temperature. It is a noble gas and is relatively inert, meaning it does not readily react with other elements. Krypton is commonly used in lighting, such as in fluorescent lamps and photographic flashes.
What is inert substance?
a inert gas is one that doesnt respond
Is krypton a metal?
Krypton is a gas, one of the noble or intert gases.
What are some things that contain krypton?
No. Krypton is one of the noble/inert gases, so it does not react with any other element (the exception to that rule is Xenon, which can form a compound with Fluorine, but this is irrelevant).
What does the name krypton means?
A colorless element that is one of the six inert gasses; occurs in trace amounts in air
Does Krypton Have A High Melting Point?
NO. Krypton is one of the inert gases. It has a melting point of 115.79 K, -157.36 °C
What are the main characteristics of Krypton?
Krypton is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, inert gas, and considered to be non-toxic. Although it is extremely unreactive krypton can react with fluorine, and a few compounds of the element have been prepared, including krypton (II) fluoride and krypton clathrates. Krypton is characterized by several sharp emission lines (spectral signatures) the strongest being green and yellow. It is one of the products of uranium fission. Solidified krypton is white and crystalline with a face-centered cubic crystal structure, which is a common property of all noble gases.
Is krypton man made?
Krypton is an element, and all elements are the result of nuclear fission, nuclear fusion or radioactive decay. Krypton is one of the byproducts of the nuclear fission of Uranium and Plutonium, either from atomic bombs or nuclear reactors. Since Krypton is not one of the results of a natural radioactive decay chain, the only other possible source of Krypton is from nuclear fusion, and the only source of fusion powerful enough to produce it would be a supernova.
What is an inert substance?
The "inert" or "noble" gasses are called that because they do not participate in any chemical reactions. They are: Helium, neon, argon, krypton,. xenon, and radon. (Xenon has been known to form compounds with other elements, but only at exceptionally low temperatures.) They are in Column 18 of the WebElements periodic table.

What are inert gas in the atmosphere that starts with a?
Argon is one of them
