Neil Bartlett (15 September 1932 – 5 August 2008) was a British chemist who specialized in fluorine and compounds containing fluorine, and became famous for creating the first noble gas compounds. He taught chemistry at the University of British Columbia and the University of California, Berkeley .
The first published report, in June 1962, of a noble gas compound was by Neil Bartlett, who noticed that the highly oxidising compound platinum hexafluoride ionised O 2 to O + 2. As the ionisation energy of O 2 to O + 2 (1165 kJ mol −1 ) is nearly equal to the ionisation energy of Xe to Xe + (1170 kJ mol −1 ), he tried the reaction of Xe ...
The noble gases have also been referred to as inert gases, but this label is deprecated as many noble gas compounds are now known. [6] Rare gases is another term that was used, [ 7 ] but this is also inaccurate because argon forms a fairly considerable part (0.94% by volume, 1.3% by mass) of the Earth's atmosphere due to decay of radioactive ...
Neil Bartlett "For his research exploring the highest oxidation limits of the less oxidizable elements, primarily using elemental fluorine. He has exposed the new chemistry of the noble gases and new procedures for attaining high oxidation state limits across the elements of the periodic table" [129] 2003: Roger Parsons
Xenon reversibly complexes gaseous M(CO) 5, where M=Cr, Mo, or W. p-block metals also bind noble gases: XeBeO has been observed spectroscopically and both XeBeS and FXeBO are predicted stable. [27] The compound Xe 2 Sb 2 F 11 contains a Xe–Xe bond, the longest element-element bond known (308.71 pm = 3.0871 Å). [28]

Biopics often take liberties with the truth, but Clinton says 'Spinning Gold' got at least two things right: Wiz Khalifa did a "real good job" portraying him, and he really did spend seven figures ...
Easy Money or The Game of Easy Money was a board game introduced by Milton Bradley Company in 1935. Like Monopoly , the game is based on The Landlord's Game in the movement of pieces around the board, the use of cards, properties that can be purchased, and houses that can be established on them.
