Well this isn't going too well is it? No response. I know, I'll try something to kick start the thread; What do people think of Sodium? A useful element or a little bit overrated? It's okay W. Look how few people participate in our other high-brow threads. They have no taste. Warspite1 Yes I know - I think I just need the right catalyst; like water on magnesium. I know, who would like to say a few words on the Inert Gases? Well I have gas at the moment. Will that do? Warspite1 Erm, thanks Steiner, although I was kind of hoping for something along the lines of: The noble, a.k.a the Inert, gases are a group of chemical elements with very similar properties: under standard conditions, they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases, with very low chemical reactivity. The six noble gases that occur naturally are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and the radioactive radon (Rn). For the first six periods of the periodic table, the noble gases are exactly the members of group 18 of the periodic table. However, this no longer holds in the seventh period (due to relativistic effects): the next member of group 18, ununoctium, is probably not a noble gas. Instead, group 14 member ununquadium exhibits noble-gas-like properties. Oh well, the Pepcid worked. Give me some time to over this gas attack and I will quote some Ambrose on this subject.
