Many elements combine with hydrogen(valence = 1) to give
compounds called hydrides.
Use the position of an element in the periodic table to deduce its
valence.
Write formulas for these hydrides without using subscripts,
for example XH3.
If no hydride forms, write "none".
What is the formula of the hydride formed by
helium?
What is the formula of the hydride formed by
xenon?
What is the formula of the hydride formed by helium answer :
NONE
What is the formula of the hydride formed by xenon? answer :
NONE
explanation:
in the periodic table . He , Ne, Ar , Kr , Xe , Rn . these elements are called inert gases or zero group elements . so these elements cannot form any compounds except with higher electronegative elements like F and O
suppose Xe for XeF2, XeF4,XeF6 , XeO3, XeO4 . other compouds are not possible.
due to inertness of He and Xe . the outermost shell is completely filled
