Elements that have high ionization energy value means that they belong to:

Correct answer: D. Noble gases

  • A. Metals
  • B. Non-metals
  • C. Metalloids
  • D. Noble gases

Explanation

Elements that have high ionization energy values belong to the group of noble gases. Noble gases are a group of elements located in Group 18 of the periodic table, including helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and radon (Rn). These elements have a full outer electron shell, making them stable and less likely to lose or gain electrons. As a result, noble gases have high ionization energies, indicating the energy required to remove an electron from an atom is relatively high.

About Chemical Bonding

Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
