Answer: The correct option is The properties of a noble gas.
Explanation: There are 7 periods in the periodic table.
The last element of each period are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn) and Ununoctium (Uuo).
- The electronic configuration for Helium is
. For He, The outermost electrons are 2.
- The electronic configuration for all the other elements is
( where, n = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively). For all the other gases, the outermost electrons are 8.
All these elements have stable electronic configuration and are not reactive in nature. Hence, they are considered as noble gases.
Therefore, the last element of each period always have the properties of a noble gas.
Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell
can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 +
6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on.
The general formula is that the nth shell can in principle hold up to
2(n2) electrons.
