  3. Noble gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas

    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 ...

  4. Group (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(periodic_table)

    In chemistry, a group (also known as a family) [1] is a column of elements in the periodic table of the chemical elements. There are 18 numbered groups in the periodic table; the 14 f-block columns, between groups 2 and 3, are not numbered.

    Here [Ne] refers to the core electrons which are the same as for the element neon (Ne), the last noble gas before phosphorus in the periodic table. The valence electrons (here 3s 2 3p 3) are written explicitly for all atoms.

  6. Noble gas compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas_compound

    Structure of a noble-gas atom caged within a buckminsterfullerene (C 60) molecule. Noble gases can also form endohedral fullerene compounds where the noble gas atom is trapped inside a fullerene molecule. In 1993, it was discovered that when C 60 is exposed to a pressure of around 3 bar of He or Ne, the complexes He@C 60 and Ne@C 60 are formed ...

  7. Radon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radon

    Radon is a member of the zero-valence elements that are called noble gases, and is chemically not very reactive. The 3.8-day half-life of 222 Rn makes it useful in physical sciences as a natural tracer. Because radon is a gas at standard conditions, unlike its decay-chain parents, it can readily be extracted from them for research. [19]

  8. Block (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_(periodic_table)

    Helium is an s-block element, with its outer (and only) electrons in the 1s atomic orbital, although its chemical properties are more similar to the p-block noble gases in group 18 due to its full shell.

  9. Period (periodic table) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_(periodic_table)

    All but the noble gas argon are essential to basic geology and biology. Sodium (Na) is an alkali metal. It is present in Earth's oceans in large quantities in the form of sodium chloride (table salt). Magnesium (Mg) is an alkaline earth metal. Magnesium ions are found in chlorophyll. Aluminium (Al) is a post-transition metal.
