Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas under standard conditions, with approximately two-thirds the density of air. Neon was discovered in 1898 alongside krypton and xenon, identified as one of the three remaining rare inert elements in dry air after the removal of nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and carbon dioxide.

Neon lighting consists of brightly glowing, electrified glass tubes or bulbs that contain rarefied neon or other gases. Neon lights are a type of cold cathode gas-discharge light. A neon tube is a sealed glass tube with a metal electrode at each end, filled with one of a number of gases at
Neon's polarisability of 0.395 Å 3 is the second lowest of any element (only helium's is more extreme). Low polarisability means there will be little tendency to link to other atoms. [1] Neon has a Lewis basicity or proton affinity of 2.06 eV. [2] Neon is theoretically less reactive than helium, making it the least reactive of all the elements ...
The abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of neon. Neon (10 Ne) possesses three stable isotopes: 20 Ne, 21 Ne, and 22 Ne. In addition, 17 radioactive isotopes have been discovered, ranging from 15 Ne to 34 Ne, all short-lived. The longest-lived is 24 Ne with a half-life of 3.38(2) min. All others are under a minute, most under a second.
A General Electric NE-34 glow lamp, manufactured circa 1930. Neon was discovered in 1898 by William Ramsay and Morris Travers.The characteristic, brilliant red color that is emitted by gaseous neon when excited electrically was noted immediately; Travers later wrote, "the blaze of crimson light from the tube told its own story and was a sight to dwell upon and never forget."
