Do noble gases react with metals and non metals?

Nobles gasses will not react with metals or most nonmetals. Only a few noble gasses compounds exits, and none exist naturally. Noble gasses will only form compounds with fluorine and oxygen.


The three main groups of elements are?

The three main groups of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals are typically solid, shiny, malleable, and good conductors of electricity. Nonmetals are generally dull, brittle, and poor conductors of electricity. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.

Are noble gases metals or nonmetals?

Noble gases are nonmetals. They are colorless, odorless gases that are known for their low reactivity and full outer electron shells.


Do metalloids have a complete outer shell?

Metalloids do not have a complete outer shell, as they have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals. They typically have three, five, or six electrons in their outer shell, which gives them characteristics of both metal and nonmetal elements.


Is helium a semi-metal?

No, helium is not a semi-metal. It is a noble gas that exists as a monatomic gas at room temperature and does not exhibit the properties of semi-metals, which are elements that have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals.
