Question
Chapter 17, Problem 62A
To determine
Five elements of periodic table that are inert gases other than Helium.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Inert gas:
It is a gas that does not radially combine with other elements. They are also called as noble gases. They do not undergo
They belong to group 18 of the periodic table. They are colorless, tasteless, nonflammable and odorless gases.
The five inert gases other than Helium (atomic number 2) are,
- Neon (atomic number 10)
- Argon (atomic number 18)
- Krypton (atomic number 36)
- Xenon (atomic number 54)
- Radon (atomic number 86)
