Q
What are the patterns in the Properties of the Noble Gases?
A
The boiling points of the noble gases increase as you move down the group along with increasing relative atomic mass
The increase in boiling point is due to an increase in the number of electrons in each atom leading to greater intermolecular forces between them which need to be overcome.
They are all Inert and Colourless.
They all exist as monatomic gases - single atoms not bonded to each other.
All the gases are inert they’re non-flammable - they won’t set on fire.
