Q. What do elements in group 18 8A have in common?
The noble gases are a group of chemical elements that make up Group 18 on the periodic table. These gases all have similar properties under standard conditions: they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases with very low chemical reactivity.
Q. Do elements belonging to Group 8A have electronegativity values?
Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom to attract shared electrons in a covalent bond. The higher the value of the electronegativity, the more strongly that element attracts the shared electrons….Periodic Trends — Electronegativity.

Q. What is the name of Group 7A elements?
Group 7A (or VIIA) of the periodic table are the halogens: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At).
Q. Why are Group 8A elements are unreactive?
The reason for them being inert is that all of their shells are completely filled. Inert gases have ns2 np6 configuration which shows that they have 8 electrons in their valence shell.
Q. What food has most iodine?
The foods highest in iodine include seaweed, dairy, tuna, shrimp and eggs. Additionally, most table salt has been iodized, providing an easy way to add iodine to your meals.
Q. How do I know if I need iodine?
