Flashcards

Noble Gases

Group 18 of the periodic table, containing elements like Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.

State of Noble Gases at Room Temperature

Exists as a gas at room temperature due to weak interatomic forces.

Valence Electron Configuration of Noble Gases

The outermost electron shell is completely filled with 8 electrons (except for Helium, which has 2).

Low Boiling Points of Noble Gases

They have weak interatomic forces, leading to low attraction between atoms.
