  2. Noble gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_gas

    For example, the electron notation of phosphorus is 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 3, while the noble gas notation is [Ne] 3s 2 3p 3. This more compact notation makes it easier to identify elements, and is shorter than writing out the full notation of atomic orbitals .

  3. List of alternative nonmetal classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_alternative...

    Noble gases were not known in 1844 when this classification arrangement was published. Hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen were grouped together on account of their occurrence in living things. Phosphorus, sulfur and selenium were characterised as being solid; volatile at an average temperature between 100 degrees and red heat; and ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Chemically inert - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemically_inert

    The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon) were previously known as 'inert gases' because of their perceived lack of participation in any chemical reactions. The reason for this is that their outermost electron shells (valence shells) are completely filled, so that they have little tendency to gain or lose electrons.

  6. List of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gases

    This list is sorted by boiling point of gases in ascending order, but can be sorted on different values. "sub" and "triple" refer to the sublimation point and the triple point, which are given in the case of a substance that sublimes at 1 atm; "dec" refers to decomposition. "~" means approximately. Blue type items have an article available by ...

  8. Monatomic gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monatomic_gas

    It is usually applied to gases: a monatomic gas is a gas in which atoms are not bound to each other. Examples at standard conditions of temperature and pressure include all the noble gases ( helium , neon , argon , krypton , xenon , and radon ), though all chemical elements will be monatomic in the gas phase at sufficiently high temperature (or ...

  9. Atomicity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    For example, each molecule of oxygen (O 2) is composed of two oxygen atoms. Therefore, the atomicity of oxygen is 2. ... All noble gases are monoatomic. Diatomic ...
