Because noble gases are very unreactive only a small number of compounds is known: halides, oxides, salts, especially from xenon. Some compounds are unstable.

Can heavy noble gases form compounds with fluorine?

Yes, heavy noble gases (such as radon, xenon, and krypton) can form compounds with fluorine, known as noble gas compounds. These compounds are typically unstable and formed under specific conditions. Xenon, in particular, is well-known for forming a variety of noble gas compounds with fluorine.


The elements that do not ordinarily form compounds are?

Noble gases, such as helium, neon, and argon, do not typically form compounds because they have a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell of electrons, making them very unlikely to gain or lose electrons to form bonds with other elements.


What are gases that do not form compounds with other elements called?

the noble gases


What don't the noble gases form?

Noble gases doesn't form many compounds because they are extremely unreactive.


Elements that do not ordinarly form compounds are?

Noble gases.


What are elements called that do not form compounds?

Noble gases


What do noble gases all have in common?

They are not very reactive and they do not form bonds with each other, so molecules of noble gases cannot be formed, there are only atoms, i.e. they are monatomic gases.. Up until 1962 no noble gas compounds were known however compounds of Argon, Krypton Xenon and Radon all form unstable compounds with fluorine.


Which group of atoms do not usually form compounds?

The noble gases.


Are noble gases known for forming salts?

The number of compounds of noble gases is very low; salts derived from xenon are known.


What group of elements satisfies the octect rule without forming compounds?

Noble gases satisfy the octet rule without forming compounds because they already have a full outer shell of electrons, making them stable and unreactive.


Why are the noble gases are not found as a compounds?

They have very stable electron configuration. They does not tend to make compounds.


Are the Noble Gases very reactive with other elements and form many compounds?

No. The noble gases are inreactive and don't form compounds with other elements. This is because they have a full outer shell of electrons.
