You might not be so bright, but I am!  

 

Status update:

~10-5-2013~ I am single. I have been single since 1898. (when I was found) 

~10-9-13~ I am in the pizza shop just hanging  with the window!

~10-16-13~ Today I'm in the store trying to find a new light bulb.

~10- 31-13~ It's Halloween! I am currently on the "Haunted House" sign.

~11-5-13~ I have not really been found in many chemical equations because I don't react well with others. There are rumors that I might of made a compound with Fluorine......but you'll just have to wait and see. I wish that someday I'll be in lots of chemical equations like Oxygen and Carbon.

Overview:

Hey! My name is Neon. I'm a colorless, and odorless. In my gas state I am also tasteless. When I'm under low pressure, I glow a bright red orange color.

Information: 

 

Relationship Status: 

Single ( because I'm a noble gas)

Primary Relationship: 

None   :,( 

network: 

Non-metal 

valence electrons:

8

reactivity: Nonreactive 
state of matter:  Gas 
Location on Periodic Table: Period 2, Group 18 

Birthday: 

1898 

Hometown: 

United Kingdom 

Movies: 

I Shine so Bright. Autobiography by Neon 

Activities & Interests:

I am used to make neon signs. When a electric current is passed through, neon gas is passed through a tube. Under low pressure I produce a very bright red orange color.

 

I am not apart of any reactions. I haven't made any true compounds with anyone else yet. If I  were tor react with someone else I would either have a double 

displacement, single displacement, combustion, decomposition, acid based, or synthesis. 


Places:

In the air. ( neon is found in low amounts in the air.)

London, England (Discovered)

In the open sign on the window at the pizza shop.

This is what I'm used for. They are 

usually a bright red/ orange color thought. 

My bright color has inspired

desigeners to come out with bright

colored clothing.

This is me! I am commonly found in stores! 

This is me in a discharge tube. This red/orange color is the natural color I come in.

Why is neon a noble gas?

neon said

at 2:06 pm on Oct 25, 2013

Neon is a noble gas because it has a full valance electron shell. There are six noble gases total. They are Helium, Aragon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon, and me!We all have 8 valance electrons.

How was neon discovered?

neon said

at 2:10 pm on Oct 29, 2013

Neon was discovered through the study of liquefied air. It was discovered by Sir William Ramsay and Morris M. Travers. I was discovered shortly after my friend krypton.

Why is neon monatomic?

neon said

at 2:32 pm on Oct 29, 2013

I am monatomic because i don't react with other molecules. Since I have all my valance electrons, i don't have any empty spaces left.

How are you the same as the neon on cloths?

neon said

at 5:30 pm on Nov 4, 2013

I am not the same. I just meant my bright colors have inspired this trend.

You said that you produce a pretty orange light, well when I react, i produce a bright red color. Ain't that cool?

neon said

at 5:33 pm on Nov 4, 2013

Woah! That's really cool?

Hey, neon; finally there's somone that doesn't react like me. I feel your pain :(

neon said

at 5:34 pm on Nov 4, 2013

Hahah forever alone :)

Hey neon, I heard you don't react very well, well I react so much it's annoying!

neon said

at 5:36 pm on Nov 4, 2013

yeah it's true.

Everyone is always wanting to react with me! What is like to not be able to react with anyone?

neon said

at 5:37 pm on Nov 4, 2013

It's not fun at all. :( Im always lonely.

I'm right there with you Neon. I'm forever alone too. Having a full valence shell has its downsides. I wish I had more friends.....

It most be cool being all bright and standing out.

Your incredibly non-reactive!! SHAME ON YOU!
