I think if you added a proton you would have chlorine.
The noble gasses are the he chemical elements in group 18 of the periodic table. The gasses in this family include helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. All these gasses are colorless are oderless, elements in this family have atoms with a full outer shell of electrons. They are also called inert gasses.
Six valence electrons
By definition of noble gases, neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.
<h3>Noble gases</h3>
Noble gases are not very reactive, that is, they practically do not form chemical compounds. This means that they do not react with other substances, nor do they even react between atoms of the same gas, as is the case with diatomic gases such as oxygen (O₂).
The chemical stability of the noble gases and therefore the absence of spontaneous evolution towards any other chemical form, implies that they are already in a state of maximum stability.
All chemical transformations involve valence electrons, they are involved in the process of covalent bond formation and the formation of ions. Therefore, the practically null reactivity of the noble gases is due to the fact that they have a complete valence shell, which gives them a low tendency to capture or release electrons.
Since the noble gases do not react with the other elements, they are also called inert gases.
<h3>Neon</h3>
Neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.

As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.
Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.
Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.
Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.
The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.
