Best Answer

Carbon is not one of the inert gasses. Actually, anything other than He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Rn would be a correct answer.

Are halogens inert gases?

No. halogens are not inert gases. Halogens are group 17 elements. Inert gases or noble gases are the group 18 elements Helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn) are the six inert gases.


How many elements are inert gases?

Six noble gases (group 18), and Nitrogen (N2) gas are all inert. They are all different elements, so: 7


What are substances with which argon combines with?

Argon is one of the Noble Gases, so it is inert, meaning it has a full outer shell and therefore never combines with any other element. The noble gases are also called the inert gases. The six noble gases are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. They are members of group 18 of the periodic table (right side). They are odorless, colorless gases


What are Zero group elements?

The Group 0 elements are called the noble gases. These are the six gases that are almost completely inert. Since they do not lose or gain any electrons, their valence is 0.


Two characteristics of noble gases?

Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.


Which element does not normally form chemical bonds?

there are six fluorine atoms that form bonds.


What is a noble gas?

Any of the elements in Group O of the periodic table, including helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon, which are monatomic and with limited exceptions chemically inert. Also called inert gas.


What are the inert gases or noble gases?

Noble gasses are different from other elements because they are stable (have either 8 or 0 valence electrons) and do not share, give, or take electrons (do not create bonds with other elements. And, they do not form compounds.


What are the other names for noble gases?

helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and the radioactive radon (Rn)


What does the name krypton means?

A colorless element that is one of the six inert gasses; occurs in trace amounts in air


What are noble gases and why are they chemically stable?

There are six noble gases: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon. Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.


Which of the following is not one of these six elements?

From where we are, we can't see the list of choices or the six elements.We'll have to pass on this one.
