Do noble gases interact with other elements?

No, because they have a full outer shell and hence are quite unreactive. They do not react in general.


Why do noble gases combine with atoms of any other element?

Noble gases are generally unreactive due to their full outer electron shells, making them stable. However, under certain conditions such as high pressure or high temperature, noble gases can react with atoms of other elements to form compounds. This occurs as these conditions can force electrons from the noble gas to form bonds with other atoms, allowing them to combine.


What inert gas participate in reactions?

Inert gases, also known as noble gases, are generally non-reactive due to their full valence electron shells. However, under specific conditions, some noble gases can participate in reactions. For example, xenon can form compounds with fluorine and oxygen, while krypton can react with fluorine to create a few chemical compounds. These reactions are rare and typically require extreme conditions.


What are the gases that are considered inactive?

Some examples of inactive gases include nitrogen (N2), argon (Ar), helium (He), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and neon (Ne). These gases are considered inactive because they are stable and do not readily react with other elements under normal conditions.


Is the group halogens in a periodic table reactive?

Very much so. The only group that isn't reactive is the Noble gases, however even some noble gases will react under the right conditions.

Is non metal react with oxygen?

Yes, except some noble gases.


Why fluorine reacts with neon?

Fluorine is a highly reactive element that is looking to gain an electron to achieve a full outer shell, while neon is a noble gas with a stable full outer shell of electrons. This makes fluorine eager to react with neon in order to gain stability by forming ionic bonds and completing its valence shell.


Why is fluorine stored in teflon-coated containers?

Fluorine is highly reactive and corrosive, which can easily react with many materials, including metals. Teflon is a highly inert and non-reactive material, making it suitable for storing and handling fluorine safely without reacting with the container.

What group number of elements will never form bonds?

The noble gases (group 18). Some of them have been forced to react in laboratories, however.


What is found on the right of the periodic table?

The column all the way to the right of the periodic table indicates noble gases. Noble gases have their outermost orbit completely filled with electrons so these gases do not react with other things very easily. Some examples of noble gases are helium, radon, xenon etc.


Elements in group 18 are very unreactive they are said to be inert you call these the?

Group 18 (also known as group 0) element don't react much as they have a full outer shell of electrons. Some element in group 8 include: Helium, Neon, Argon and Krypton GROUP 18 IS ALSO KNOWN AS NOBLE GASES OR INERT GASES


Will all elements combine with other elements?

in nuclear fusion i assume it is theoretically possible to combine any elements but in terms of chemical bonding, no some elements ie noble gases are very nonreactive, though the heavier noble gases do form compounds with oxygen and fluorine.


What is the bonding activity of noble gases?

Noble gases used to be called "Inert". This is because they don't naturally react. About 40 years ago, scientists managed to force a noble gas to bond, for example some are used in explosives. However, naturally they have never been found bonded.
