If the outer energy level is full, the element is said to be non reactive and inert. It is stable in nature.
Argon is an inert gas and is not chemically reactive, so it is not found in living organisms as a constituent element of biological molecules.
No, polonium is not an inert gas. It is a radioactive metalloid element that is highly reactive.
Reactive.
The fluorine ion (F-) is known to be one of the most chemically reactive ions due to its high electronegativity and ability to readily accept electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. It forms strong bonds with other elements, leading to highly reactive compounds.
