THE NOBEL GASES
ARE INERT & NON-FLAMMABLE
|
|
THE FIVE NOBEL GASES, DO NOT BOND,
WITH THEMSELVES, OR OTHER TYPES OF ATOMS,
AT TEMPERATURES, BETWEEN 0°C & 250°C
|
|
THEREFORE,THEY ARE CALLED, INERT,
NON-BONDING, MONO-ATOMIC ATOMS,
and IN JEST, THE ALOOF..NOBEL. GASES
|
|
HOWEVER, AT VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES,
AND AT VERY LOW TEMPERATURES,
AND AT GREAT EXPENSE,
THEY CAN BE MADE, TO BOND TO OTHER GASES.
|
|
ALL THE FIVE, NOBEL GASES, CAN BE TAKEN,
FROM THE EVAPORATION, OF LIQUIFIED AIR.
|
|
AS THEY ARE, BOILING OFF OR EVAPORATING,
AT EACH ONE, OF THE FIVE NOBEL GASES'
BOILING POINT, TEMPERATURES.
WHICH ARE BETWEEN -107°C & -268.9°C
|
|
THIS PROCESS, WHICH IS ACCOMPLISHED, WITHIN
LARGE, HOUR GLASS SHAPED, METALLIC CANISTERS,
IS CALLED, FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION.
