Neon is naturally unreactive with any other elements/substances. This is due to the fact that it is a noble gas, which means it has a full outer shell of (valence) electrons.
Who: William Ramsey
When: 1898
Where: Britain
How: A sample of gas was heated, and it gave off a spectrum of light not previously recorded. It was concluded a new gas had been discovered.
- Used in impressive displays/advertisements
- Used in instruments that detect electrical currents
- Used in the manufacture of lasers which are used for precise cutting in industry/surgery applications
- It is found in the air, with a percentage of .0182% of the atmosphere. It is obtained through the process of fractional distillation.
- It has no compounds.
- It is priced at $2/gram. This may be expensive, but the volume of a gram of gas compensates for the high price.
Thank you for your attention!
