Group 0 (Noble Gases)

Science

In the Atomic structure and the periodic table unit, pupils will build on this knowledge to learn about how the structure of atoms in each element determine its position on the periodic table and affects its chemical and physical properties.

In the Atoms, elements and compounds unit, pupils learnt about atoms, the differences between elements and compounds and how particles reorganise in a chemical reaction

This unit explores the periodic table, including the principles behind Mendeleev's design, the arrangement of elements into periods and groups, and the classification of metals and non-metals. It examines how the physical and chemical properties of elements predict reaction patterns.

Patterns in the periodic table

Noble gases are found in Group {{}} of the periodic table.

Which of the following elements is a noble gas?

They have complete outer electron shells.

The noble gas used in balloons because it is less dense than air is ...

Arrange the following noble gases in order of increasing boiling points, starting with the lowest boiling point.

most abundant noble gas in the atmosphere

Match the noble gas with its property or use:

Elements with the same number of outer shell electrons.

Elements with the same number of electron shells.

Elements with similar chemical properties.

What does a period in the periodic table represent?

What do elements in the same group of the periodic table have in common?

Which of the following is an example of a chemical change?

In a chemical reaction, the substances that are present at the start are called ...

Which of the following is a property of gases?

Elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of {{}} in their outer shell.
