Like all noble gases, xenon is colourless, odourless and inflammable — but it is also more reactive, and much rarer, than its lighter relatives. Ivan Dmochowski ponders how xenon, though ...

Reactivity decreases down the group. Group 0 - the noble gases - Edexcel The group 0 elements, the noble gases, are all unreactive non-metal gases. They show trends in their physical properties.

A milestone in chemistry was achieved through the use of fluorine: the discovery of the reactivity of noble gases — when xenon fluoride was prepared by Neil Bartlett in 1962 — which challenged ...
