Term
group 18
Definition
Noble Gas
Term
have full s and p orbitals in the highest energy level, have low reactivity because this electron configuration is very stable meaning it is resistant to change, 8 valence electrons, very stable elements

group 18, noble gases
Term
What are the 2 groups of the rare earth elements?
Definition
Lanthadides and Actinide
Term
Lanthanides
Definition
atomic numbers from 58 to 71, end in a 4f orbital, all shiny reactive metals
Term
Actinide
Definition
atomic numbers from 90 to 103, end in a 5f orbital, unstable and radioactive, only the first 4 have been found naturally on earth. the remaining actinides are known only as laboratory made elements
