argon: bonding
![Picture](/uploads/4/6/6/9/46692131/857216789.png?205)
Argon is the third element in the group of the noble gases. A noble gas' valence shell will always be full, and is therefore known as an inert gas. This means it cannot bond or form a compound with any other element. The only occasion it has formed a compound in another element was in 2000, when a compound was formed from a result of argon and hydrogen fluoride with caesium iodide which created argon fluorohydride.

OTHER BONDS
Argon, being a noble gas, does not react to other elements naturally. Therefore, it does not have ionic, covalent or metallic compounds. However, there are several examples of each of these types of bonding with different elements of the periodic table.
t least two examples of types of compounds - formula, and structure (picture) - properties of the compund - reactivity, conductivity, melting and boiling points - how is the compound used, what can it be found in Ionic Bond - Potassium Oxide (K2O) Metallic Bond - Brass (CuZn) Covalent Bond - Ammonia (NH4) |
