Why are the noble gases (group 18) inert?

Chemistry
1 answer:
dalvyx [7]2 years ago
8 0

The noble gases are relatively unreactive because they have a stable octet of valence electrons.

Thus, they do not tend to undergo reactions in which they will gain or lose valence electrons,

However, <em>only He, Ne, and Ar are inert</em>. Kr and Xe combine with other highly reactive elements to form stable compounds.

Answer:

Weak bonds require less energy to form than strong bonds

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the force between two species is inversely proportional to the distance between them. That said, the bigger the atoms are, the greater the bond length should be to form a molecule.

As a result, for a greater bond length, the attraction force is lower than for a shorter bond length. This implies that large atoms would form weak bonds and small atoms would form strong bonds.

Bond energy is defined as the amount of energy required to break the bond. If a bond is weak, it would require a low amount of energy to break it. This is also true for energy of formation, as it's the same process taking place in the opposite direction.
