Why is it unlikely for a neon atom to become a neon ion?

Best Answers

Neon, like all noble gasses, has a valence shell in perfect equilibrium, and it takes a lot of energy to disturb that equilibrium. It also takes very little energy to restore that equilibrium, so noble compounds and ions are very unstable. read more
