 PROPERTIES OF NOBLE GASES
• odorless, tasteless, non flammable, monoatomic gases
• Separation from air, except Radon
• Most amount in the atmosphere : Ar
• Most amount in the universe : He
• Radioactive : Rn
• The first synthesized : XePtF6
• Can be react with strongest oxidant : F and O
• Cannot be synthesized: He, Ne, Kr
• Inert (stable and unreactive)
• It has 8 valence electron,
helium
2 except He
• Difficult to accept electrons,
neon because it has low electron affinity
2,8
• Difficult to release electron,
because it has big ionization
energy
argon
2,8,8
 APPLICATIONS OF NOBLE GASES IN DAILY
LIFE
• Helium
• A filler balloon/ blimp
• As a cooler metal coils in
scanner equipment
• superconducting magnets
in MRI scanners

• 80% helium and 20% oxygen

is used as an artificial
atmosphere
• Neon
• As advertising and
airport runway
lamps

• The color is red

• Argon
• Using in light bulb,
cannot react with
wolfram as a filament

• Inert atmosphere in
welding

• Used in lasers to produce blue

green light
• Krypton
• As airport runway, lighthouses,
high speed photography,
fluorescence, lasers to threat
the eye retina
• Control the thickness of papers
• Xenon
• As an anesthetic

• Used for blitz lamps

• Used in nuclear
rectors
• Radon
• To paint the number
of watches
• Cancer treatment

• Early warning system

to earthquakes
