The elements of the "Noble" gases group is nonreactive. The reason for this is that noble gases are always or most of the time at room temperature.<span />

Answer:

The elements of group 18 or group of "Noble Gases" are non-reactive elements.

Explanation:

The reactivity of an element measures the tendency to combine with others. In the formation of compounds there is a tendency to catch, lose or share electrons between atoms.

The noble gases are placed in group 18 of the periodic table. The seven gases are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), radon (Rn) and oganeson (Og).  These gases have a very low chemical reactivity, that is, little combination with other elements of the periodic table. For that reason they are called inert gases. This behavior is due to its electronic configuration, because its outermost layer or valence layer is always complete, being the stable element by itself, without the need to borrow or share electrons.

As mentioned, noble gases are not very reactive, that is, they do not usually form bonds between atoms. This means that they don't react much with other substances, they don't even react between atoms of the same gas. The exceptions to this rule are few, and usually involve heavier noble gases, such as xenon or radon.

In summary, the elements of group 18 or group of "Noble Gases" are non-reactive elements.

Name the types of polymerization and the differences​
Talja [164]
Condensation polymerization : releasing water as by product, occurs in monomer that has functional group that can react with each other e.g alcohol&carboxlic acid to form polyesters, carboxylic acid and amines to form polyamides,etc.

Radical Polymerization: occurs by propagating radical monomers or monomer that has unsaturated bonds, such as ethene, initiated by formation of radical from the monomer by using uv lights/other initiator, does not produce any by products

How should the baking of a pizza be categorized
MrMuchimi
<h2>The baking of a Pizza be Categorize as Endothermic Process</h2>

The baking of a pizza should be categorized as an endothermic process because the dough absorbs heat. An endothermic process is a method that absorbs energy from its surroundings which is habitually in the form of energy.

It can be a biochemical process like solving the salt in water or just the melting of ice. Therefore, the dough absorbs heat and it is categorized as an endothermic process.

Rubidium and cesium have similar chemical
yawa3891 [41]
<span>Rubidium and cesium have similar chemical properties because in the ground state the atoms of both elements each have one electron in the outermost shell. The correct option is A. The two elements belong to group one of the periodic table; all elements in this group have only one electron in their outmost shell which they easily give away to other elements during chemical reactions in order to attain octet structure.</span>
