neon
Neon was discovered in 1898 by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers, but it was formally added to the periodic table in 1904 by Sir William Ramsay. Neon is classified as a noble gas and has the atomic number 10.
One of the noble gases, neon is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and completely nonreactive. When neon is under low pressure, it glows a bright orange-red if an electric current is passed through it. Neon was discovered in 1898, and since the 1920s is has been used in luminous tubes and bulbs.
Neon is the second-lightest noble gas and its color is reddish-orange. It was discovered by William Ramsay and Morris Travers in 1898.

Neon was discovered on November 18, 1898 by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers.
Neon was discovered in 1898 by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers. They obtained it by fractional distillation of liquid air. Neon is a colorless, odorless noble gas that is commonly used in neon lights and advertising signs.

Neon was discovered by Sir William Ramsay, a Scottish chemist, and Morris M. Travers, an English chemist, shortly after their discovery of the element krypton in 1898. Like krypton, neon was discovered through the study of liquefied air. Although neon is the fourth most abundant element in the universe, only 0.0018% of the earth's atmosphere is neon.The largest use for neon gas is in advertising signs. Neon is also used to make high voltage indicators and is combined with helium to make helium-neon lasers. Liquid neon is used as a cryogenic refrigerant. Neon is highly inert and forms no known compounds, although there is some evidence that it could form a compound with fluorine.
