NOBLE GASES

Where are the noble gases?

The elements in group 0, on the right of the periodic table, are called the noble gases.

NOBLE GASES

The group of noble gases is regarded as zero group of the periodic table. These are gases at ordinary temperature and do not have chemical reactivity. Due to chemical inertness, these were called inter gases. The elements Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe) and Radon (Rn) comprise noble gases.

Now-a-days, as number of compounds of these gases, particularly of xenon and krypton have been prepared, this shows that these gases are not completely inert.

They are called noble gases instead of inert gases which signifies that these gases have some reactivity.

Because of the low abundance of these gases on earth, they have also been called rare gases.

Page 6: Inert Gases Ppt

Mendeleef had not left any space for the noble gases in the periodic Table Obviously, he could not imagine the existence of elements which have almost no chemical reactivity.

Page 7: Inert Gases Ppt

Ramsay, discoverer of these gases, proposed a new group for these elements on the basis of their atomic masses and lack of chemical reactivity.

This group is called zero group of the periodic table. The zero group also suggests chemical inertness or zero valency .

Page 8: Inert Gases Ppt

Before the discovery of noble gases, there was a sudden change from the most electronegative halogens (on right hand side) to most electropositive alkali metals (left hand side) in the periodic table. The addition of zero group between VII A group and IA group has solved this anomaly .

Page 9: Inert Gases Ppt

The position of noble gases in the periodic table was later on confirmed by Moseley who constructed the periodic table on the basis of atomic numbers.

The values of atomic number of noble gases strongly suggest that they should be placed after halogens and before alkali metals

Physical Properties Noble gases

Page 11: Inert Gases Ppt

CHEMICAL INERTNESS OF NOBLE GASES

Chemical Inertness of these gases is supported by the reasons:

i) The atoms have stable completely field electronic shellsii) They have high ionisation energies iii) The noble have almost zero electron affinities.

Therefore, they do not have any tendency to gain, lose or h\share electrons with other atoms.

Page 12: Inert Gases Ppt

Chemical properties of Nobel Gases

The atoms of inert gases have saturated shells, therefore they are chemically inert. Recent studies have shown that under certain specific condition, they enter into chemical combinations and form some rare chemical compounds. The specific conditions and the types of compounds formed by these gases are disused below-

Page 13: Inert Gases Ppt

Under excited condition:- Sparking Helium at low pressure in presence of mercury, tungsten etc. forms compounds like HgHe2, HgHe10, WHe2.

Helium compounds are also fromed in discharge tubes like BiHe2, FeHe, Pt3He, PdHe. These compounds are not

considered as true chemical compounds as He is absorbed on the surface . .

Page 14: Inert Gases Ppt

• Compounds formed through co-ordination- Argon forms a number of unstable compound with varying no. of BF3 molecules e.g. Ar.BF3, Ar.6BF3

• In these compounds, argon atoms donates a pair of electrons to Boron atom of BF3 .

• In case of higher compounds fluorine atoms of BF3 also donate pair of electrons.

Page 15: Inert Gases Ppt

c) Hydrates of noble gases: The hydrates of these gases are formed by compressing the gases with water e.g., Xe.6 H2O.

d) Compounds formed by physical trapping (Clathrates)The inert gases Argon, Krypton and Xenon form solid compounds with certain organic molecules such as phenol and hydroquinone under pressureIn such compounds the inert gas are enclosed in the crystal lattice of organic compounds known as clathrates or cage compounds.

Page 16: Inert Gases Ppt

Xenon forms a large no. of compounds with oxygen and fluorine in different oxidation states . These are xenon fluorides, xenon oxides and xenon oxifluorides. 1. XeF2 Preparation.

1. Xenon di fluoride is best prepared by heating a mixture of xenon and fluorine in molecular ratio of 2:1 at 4000C in a sealed nickel tube. On cooling quickly, a colourless solid XeF2 is obtained.

Therefore, it cannot be stored in glass or quartz vessels because of the following reactions which finally give the dangerously explosive xenon trioxide.
